Hello Teresa,
thanks for answering me,
Well I am not a student, i would work on this as a hobby.
ThinLTO Is one of the projects that I found interesting.
Any direction you could give me is appreciated.
I thought that maybe I could help on something, and put some more value on
my resume. =)

Thank you very much.
Jhonny
