Hi, the GNU project has a dearth of ideas for the Google Summer of Code.
I volunteered GUILEv2 migration, but if anybody has some other
reasonable idea that can be coached and finished in a three-month span
(right?), it would be good to come up with it in the next 12 hours(!).
Janek's Tie Crusade?
Slur formatting?
There is a three-month limit as far as I can see. There seems little
point in proposing stuff that a student cannot realistically be expected
to wrap his head around in the given time frame. The GUILEv2 migration
is a project where you need to build and work with a rather confined set
of expertise and then continue applying it until you get to the end.
I think that has a reasonable chance of fitting in the time slot without
previous heavy exposure to the LilyPond code base. It's not a given,
but it has a reasonable chance. With something vague and complicated
like "tie crusade" or "slur formatting", I don't see anything happening
with a tangible result.
