# Week 0

Hello I am Soubhik Singha Mahapatra (Soubhik-10). I am  joining EPF Cohort 6 as a permissionless candidate. This note is my week 0 update.

For the last couple of weeks I have been catching up using [Epf wiki.](https://epf.wiki/#/eps/intro?id=study-group-content). I have some experience with rust and naturally my targets are rust based projects. These are a few projects I am very interested in.

### Besu / Erigon / Geth / Nethermind / Nimbus EL / Reth: Pureth (EIP-7919)

For the last few months I have been actively contributing to reth so i have a somewhat decent understanding of reth codebase. If possible I would be happy to integrete this in reth.

### Grandine: FOCIL (EIP-7805) Implementation and Testnet Deployment

I have also studied the consensus specs and have somewhat understanding of them. I found the eip interesting and will love to work on this.


In the meantime I will also look into a few more proposals.

### Next Week Plan
For the next week I will take a deep dive into the codebases. I will also experiment with the new ssz types in EIP-7919.
