 Based on the feedback received from the mentors we are requesting

 ... WE HAVE GOT 21 SLOTS ALLOWED

 First: congratulations to everybody involved: mentors AND students.
   This
 number reflects succinctly how much someone like Google trusts you.

 Second: this relaxes a lot our selection process. Between this and
  OPW
   we
 can accommodate many good proposals.

 Third: still, we will keep standards high as we have done so far.
   Having
 21 slots doesn't mean that we will take them blindly. We will
  continue
 asking questions to mentors and students about the feasibility of
  each
 proposal and we will consider accepted only those that have all the
 foundations in place.

 Last but not least: remember the important point about
  confidentiality.
 Now several projects might look pretty obvious candidates but this
doesn't
 authorize anybody to leak / pre-announce our decisions made. Google
  is
 still the one that must announce all accepted GSoC projects first.

 PS: and now, if you don't mind, I'll go get some sophisticated
 alcohol-free drink to celebrate. Salut!

[Wikitech-l] [GSoC2013] Language Coverage Matrix Dashboard proposal

2013-05-01 Thread Parth Srivastav
Hello
I am a 3rd year student of Computer Science and Engineering at Manipal
Institute of Technology. I came to know about GSoC through the local Linux
Users Group. I am relatively new to the world of open source. i enjoy
coding and am pretty dedicated towards it.

I have put up a proposal for the Language Coverage Matrix Dashboard project
listed in GSoC 2013. It would provide a much more visually attractive LCM
alongside highly useful functionalities like search, filters and data
visualization.

Following is my proposal
