Hi Terry,

It is my thesis project, but I don't need to finish: my supervising
professor is happy for my work and told me to code as much as I can, but
fortunately I have no mandatory goal to reach.
This doesn't mean that I'll abandon gencli as soon as I graduate: I'd
like to finish my work at best, and if I can get payed is much better! :-)
In a couple of sentences, describe PyPy in relation to Python and link to
site. Describe your CLI (what is that?) backend project and how it fits
into PyPy and why it is a useful thing (to other people) to do. List what
you have done (and when you began) up to application date. Then list your
next several steps. Indicate what you anticipate doing before the project
starts and what you anticipate doing during the project. (I think the FAQ
addresses the question of starting 'early' -- after approval but before the
official start date -- but forget the answer. I recommend you find it.)
If you think needed, add a caveat about minor adjustments of schedule.
Mention where code is being deposited and if publicly accessible. If your
CLI backend is already approved in principle (when sufficiently well done)
as one of the PyPy backends, say that too. And make sure your proposed
mentor(s) have contacted Neal to get URL to signup with Google.
Thanks for the suggestions, they will be useful. I read the student FAQ
but I missed the one of starting early: it seems that it's fine, so
there should be no problem for this.
ciao Anto
