Re: GSoC'21 - View Only Mode

[Derek Kozel]

    Hi Oscar!
    
    Welcome and I'm really excited to have you contributing this summer.
    Reading over your proposal you have a great background for the
    project with your experience in security and privacy and having used
    GNU Radio for your undergraduate thesis work with gr-gsm. I'm sure
    that your mentors and the rest of the folks here will help with
    getting you going on how to make contributions to an open source
    project.
    
    Once your project really starts at the beginning of June I know
    there's at least one person who is interested and willing to talk
    about some user interface and user experience suggestions for this
    project.
    
    Have you joined the main project chat? It's the quickest place to
    ask questions and talk with other people working on the software.

    Thanks for choosing to spend your summer working with us!
    
    Derek

Hello,

I've been accepted to work with GnuRadio for this year's Google Summer of Code. I will be working on implementing a GRC View-Only Mode, which is a security feature disabling execution of block parameters in untrusted flowgraphs.

I will be posting weekly progress updates on my blog:

If you are interested in reading more about the View-Only mode it is described further in my project proposal:

Please reach out if you have any questions, advice or thoughts you want to share.

Best regards,
