The idea came from the urge of creating something new and learning new things. Gautam seemed interested and joined quickly. Chandra also liked the idea and joined.
The idea is to create a new product. The product will be developed using open source methodology. This will provide opportunity for the team members to learn the open source way of developing software product.
One more goal was also to learn new things in respective technical fields. Gautam is a technical writer, Chandra is a Quality Analyst, I am a developer. We all can learn new things is our own respective fields by applying newer but proven technologies and methods to this project.
While searching for a hosting provider and collaboration tools I zeroed on Google Code as our host for the project and while digging the features I was happy like a kid to see the plethora of features offered by the service.

Issue Tracker
Source and Wiki Version Control
We also started this blog for the project
We used Google Groups to create mailing lists for the project
The spirit is high, energy is flowing and we are excited to delve into the actual development to start in this project.
This will be a project developed by contributed time of each team member in his own time and space.
with regards
