Hi Steve,

After reading the recent mails it seems that I should have submitted the draft on the gsoc website. I shall do the same immediately :)

Hi Steve,

I went ahead and drafted a rough proposal as you advised. I've included the schedule with the deadlines in the proposal, and mentioned the dates with the purpose of giving an approximate idea of how the project will be executed. The link to the proposal is attached below, and it would be great if you could put in your comments in the proposal regarding any opinion that you have of it.

Proposal <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dxf_8bdhHkIGJPNsLQy4qdBWxgHQP8ARvZUupR2z...>

I haven't submitted this docs link in the summer of code page yet, as I would like to get your review first regarding it.

Also,

...

I'm going to be out of circulation for another 36 hours or so. I did want to comment on your new milestones but have other things to take care of so it will have to wait.

Yes, we could discuss the milestones and depending on the discussion I can modify the proposal before its final submission.

...

You haven't mentioned other applications. Google rules allow up to 5, to different projects with one organization or to multiple organzations. I recommend against submitting more than 3 as a waste of your energy and probably will detract from your evaluation on all of them. But nobody's feelings will be hurt if you do submit to other organizations. I would appreciate knowing as early as possible if you have other prospects (in or out of GSoC). This will not affect your evaluation in Mailman.

I will be submitting only one proposal, that is in Mailman. Actually, I haven't yet been able to find any other projects suitably interesting for submitting a proposal. So Mailman will remain as the top priority submission for me! Also, I will be having my college summer vacations from mid May to July end, and have no prior commitments for this period, and in August since college will have just reopened I will have enough time to work on the project.

I did not know if the proposal is to be CC'ed to the mailing list at this stage, and since the previous mail did not CC the mailing list, I have followed suit. Hope its not a problem :)

Thanks!

Aditya.
