Hi,<br>My name's Sami Zerrade, and I'm one of six students joining the ScummVM team as part of the 2008 Google Summer of Code. I'm a fourth-year Computer Science major at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.<br>
<br>My mentor is Jordi V. Prat, and our goal is to add support for Sierra's SCI games to ScummVM by transforming the open-source FreeSCI VM into a ScummVM engine. Jordi's made substantial progress on this (you can find the current version at <a href="http://darcs.jvprat.com/">http://darcs.jvprat.com/</a> ), but there's still a lot of redundant and platform-specific code. Over the next few months, I'll be replacing it piece by piece.<br>
<br>For this interested in tracking our progress, I've set up a blog at:<br><a href="http://scummsci.blogspot.com/">http://scummsci.blogspot.com/</a><br>On IRC, I go by szerrade. Thank you to all who had a hand in my proposal's acceptance, and I look forward to collaborating with everyone.<br>
