Yeah, sorry about the confusion, the timeline says: March 16 18:00 UTC Student application period begins March 31 18:00 UTC Student application deadline So technically we could add ideas until March 31, but I think it makes no sense, especially as we ask students to submit proposals well in advance. So we should give ourselves March 16 as our actual deadline to add ideas. > >> - is it too difficult of a project for GSoC? > > > > I guess it depends on how much you as a mentor would help the student > > getting started. > > > > I think it's interesting and worth adding it anyway.

I am adding Heba in Cc as she said she would be ok to co-mentor. Emily and Jonathan T. might be interested too, so I'm adding them too.
