Hi Piyush,
(please always reply to the mailing list in your responses, this helps
communication flow to everyone)
I have approved your wiki request. You might want to expand your wiki
page now: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/User:0x48piraj For example, as
you learn OSGeo projects and start contributing, you can list your OSGeo
activities on your wiki page (such as mine
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Jeff_McKenna).
Please start examining the OSGeo project links and getting familiar with
the projects, for the Code-in contest.
