Something like graphic design via CSS alone doesn't fly. It has to come with an implementation that is aimed to be of high enough quality to be integrated. If the project misses implementation quality by end of summer, nobody's going to complain if we pass the student based on reasonable effort and significant progress. But what Google is paying for is the time and effort spent on designing and writing code to implement processes, not the UX design. Eg, doing CSS work that makes a screen pretty and easy to hide uninteresting information and changes simple text fields to more structured widgets (eg for date input) is out. Writing JavaScript that sanity-checks user input is OK. If what you mean is the kind of stuff that is involved in Postorius and Shanu Salunke's "Mailman Interface" (a GSoC project for Systers last year), yes, that passes muster. _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
