Yay, a copy and paste proposal! Seriously, we are looking for somebody to work on web of trust based indexes, although we would like a bit more detail. Also note that GSoC finishes on August 17th; we CANNOT take into account any work after that point when determining whether you have passed and can receive the final payment. Finally, if you're happy with a proposal you should submit it via the Google Summer of Code web application on http://socghop.appspot.com/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
