You could, but it makes a lot of work to write a good proposal. Being eager is never wrong, but honestly you should concentrate on one idea. And anyway, you can only do one job in the end. If you cannot decide by your own which project to step on, I’d recommend to sketch the ideas really briefly and ask us which one seems more promising. > - I have been working at the Smart Data Analytics Lab at Uni Bonn (site under > development), under the guidance of Prof. Jens Lehmann for the past year and > a half.

It can be complicated with students from befriended institutes, in particular when they had a working relation beforehand. This simply gives the impression that we are accepting students for GSoC instead of continuing to hire them. The actual idea of GSoC is to get some new developers for open source projects and thereby increase the number of open source people. Hence some questions: * Until when did you work at SDA or are you still working there? You are listed as a current student assistant at their website. * Are you working or did you work together with one of the mentors for your projected idea? I hope this answers your questions.
