I'll admit - I'm intrigued by the notion of carbon footprint reduction via
software enhancements.. :)
I appreciate that you've concisely provided background on the what and how. I'm
curious if you can expand a tad more on the why. To many the notion of energy
conservation is very familiar - but in all fairness - I've suggested to others that
they not assume everyone will know as much as they do - so a bit more info there
wouldn't hurt.
You've been in IRC actively - so you're aware of that resource.
Same comment to SMW folks as Flickr folks - contemplate each other's proposals and be
mindful of any overlap and the stated criteria like quality of apps, etc. Might not be a
bad idea to see what others are proposing. :)

Hi,
I am participating in GSOC'12 with my proposal for Green SMW [1].
This proposal is about reducing the carbon footprint of SMW , in other
words it will enhance the performance of SMW significantly.
All the details are on [1], suggestions to improve or comments are most
welcome.
I have also been contributing to MW with my new Extension:AllTimeZones [2],
comments to that are welcomed as well.
My other contributions to MW are listed here [3].
