Thank you for the instructions Matthias. I pushed the changes I
suggested earlier (the obvious stuff) along with some other
corrections. I suggest others proof-read this document as well, as I
still believe there are awkward and unclear sentences lurking in
there.

Well, you can edit it. See http://www.suckless.org/wiki/ for further
details.

Thanks, very obvious. The comma seems reasonable.

Just send me the diff or push it yourself. However, I'll take out my
grammar book and look for mistakes in the GSoC page.

Could another native speaker (preferably British) look for mistakes
as well?

Hey Matthias,

That URL you mentioned has some simple typos in it. The page is not
publicly editable, so I thought I'd let you know. The things that
stick out at me right away are:

"proof" should be "prove"
"Our project scopes focus on advanced" should be "...focuses on advanced"
"projects who focus" should be "projects that focus"
Need a comma after "average and normal end users"

I could go on, but editing that page over email is not the most
efficient way of doing things.

I also created a list of mentors:

http://www.suckless.org:8000/gsoc.html

You may add yourself to the list if Anselm agreed.

Hi there,

please send me a private mail if you'd be willing to mentor a GSoC
project this year for suckless.org.
We need at least 10 mentors I'd say.

Kind regards,
