GSoC: Insight Projects
by Peter Borsa
Hello!
I would like to talk to all students, who would like to work on any
Insight project, they review their proposals, if they have a question
feel free to ask us (María Leandro, Buddhike Kurera or me), make the
final version and submit it via google-melange! Remember, the deadline
is coming soon. You just have a few days.
Thanks,

I suggest you draft up a proposal, buts since you are unfamiliar with
Django and the Dorrie source code, it might be a difficult task.
Also unless you write up a proposal, it's difficult to say whether it
would be considered or rejected.
