You can if you rewrite the key points of proposal to retain the overall message, but remove identifying information. I think it would be helpful to write up some of the general reasons for projects being rejected. I tried to do this for Haskell experience reports, on the Haskell Symposium experience report advice page. http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/HaskellSymposium/ExperienceReports I'd imagine you could write up some common proposal / rejection / advice tuples like: Proposal: I want to write a MMORPG in Haskell, because this would be a good demonstration for Haskell in a large real world project. We can use this as a platform to develop the networking library infrastructure. Rejection: This project is much too big, and the production of a MMORPG wouldn't benefit the community as a whole. Advice: If you know of specific problems in the networking library infrastructure, then focus on those, using specific examples of where people have tried to do something and failed. Ben.
