Hello,

My name is Sahil and I am a final year computer science undergrad. I
am interested in working on the "Improve Statistics Handling" project
as part of GSoC 2023. I have been using strace as an end-user for a
long time but have never been involved in its development.

I have an interest in systems programming and binary analysis, and am
comfortable with C, C++ and Python. I am also working on enhancing my
Rust skills. I have worked on some bite-sized tasks and issues in
other open source organisations in the past (eg:
https://github.com/htop-dev/htop/pull/1062).

I am confident that I'll be able to learn on the fly while working
through the project and I believe I'll get to learn a lot. I was going
through the list of possible microtasks as well as open issues on
github, and I would like to work on issue #179 ("allow process
detaching after N syscalls captured" -
https://github.com/strace/strace/issues/179).

I would love to hear back from you.

Regards,
Sahil
