Hi Ales, Thanks for expressing interest! To answer your first question right away (might be important for others as well):
We haven't received a lot proposals so far, unfortunately. Your chance for a successful depends on a lot of factors, some of which we can't influence. However, what you should do right now (since time is limited) is the following: - Make up your mind which project you want to apply for, NOW! - Discuss your ideas now and ask questions, NOW! The most interactive and productive source is our IRC channel - Start writing your proposal, NOW! Sorry for the caps, but time is really limited ;) The only project you listed directly dealing with parallelism is the first. The other two are mainly "supporting" projects. However, I think they are equally interesting and of high potential. The second one would be particularly nice since having a separate hpx_main is considered a hassle by some. The third one is at the heart of HPX and a good outcome will have a huge impact on the performance of HPX! Hope that helps, don't hesitate to ask further questions!
