Both scipy and numpy require GSOC

candidates to have a pull request accepted as part of the application process. I'd suggest implementing a function not currently in scipy that you think would be useful. That would also help in finding a mentor for the summer. I'd also suggest getting familiar with cython.

Thanks a lot for the heads-up. I am yet to be familiarized with Cython and it indeed is playing a crucial role especially in the 'special' module

I don't see you on github yet, are you there? If not, you should set up an account to work in. See the developer guide <http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/dev/>for some pointers.

I am present on github but the profile at present is just a mark of humble mistakes of a beginner to open-sourcing, The id is https://github.com/jennystone. I hope to build upon my profile. Jennifer
