Hello Jagadish, You should definitely read through the source files and the wiki to discover the current import/export capability. However, I will note that proposing more work than is realistic is a great way to get a proposal disqualified. You should only propose as much as can be reasonably expected given your skills and familiarity, not what sounds impressive. Someone that has never developed for BRL-CAD or STEP before, for example, would likely encounter great difficulty understanding the existing code base or complex concepts in STEP and would probably take 20x longer than someone that’s been working on it for years. Please do not propose working on both import *and* export. Focus on the current needs of one or the other and be as specific as possible. Good proposals will provide a timeline of what activities will be performed during every week o GSoC. The schedule may change, but it at least shows you thought things through. Anyone can find examples of past successful GSoC student proposals on our wiki. Cheers!
