Hi Ibrahim and Omkar, We have an overlap with regards to GSoC 2016. You both are interested in addressing [0]... which on one hand is absolutely GREAT. On the other hand however it may be best for us to work with the OCW community to get advice on other projects which may be appealing for GSoC 2016. It would be great to have some comments here from the community regarding ideas to improve OCW over this summer. @Ibrahim and @Omkar, it might also be best for you to consider (either individually or in public) your thoughts. I have mentored many GSoC projects over the last 6 years which have been successful but which have been awarded on a competitive basis e.g. the best proposal wins. It is absolutely fine for you to both submit a proposal for the same project, however I always suggest that this is acknowledged and addressed. This way everyone has the best chance of participating in GSoC. Let me know what you all think. Thanks
