Thread: GSoC student proposal question




GSoC student proposal question
user name
2008-03-17 17:49:44
Hello all. Prospective student here. I have some ideas for features I'd like to implement into Drupal, but I have a quick question before I present my proposal: if the community finds my ideas better suited for a module separate from the core distribution, can it still be accepted as a GSoC project? Or are mentors only interested in core features/improvements?

Thank you,
Casey

GSoC is absolutely interested in contributed (non-core)
modules.

Thanks Erza, that's good news.

I have been watching the proposal list and there are a few projects I'd be interested in, particularly Google Contacts, FeedAPI, and theme upload system. I thought I'd also submit my own proposal for good measure and because it's something I've been wanting to implement for some time.

You can propose ideas yourself too, if you have one or a few.

Go here and suggest what you want to work on, or check other ideas not yet
in the official list.

Hi Khalid. I do have a few ideas. I'm preparing my proposal right now.

I've also been watching the list you provided and this one as well:
