pydy.org gives a 404. You might want to fix that.

You should also contact the SymPy list, as they will probably be the mentoring organization that you will apply to (unless you guys have some project that would live outside the SymPy code base, in which case, it can possibly also go under the umbrella of another project, such as Python). You should also read https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2013-application-template. In particular, we require at least one patch to SymPy to be accepted. By the way, can you guys make sure that https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2013-ideas is up-to-date with all the potential ideas for the mechanics module? Aaron Meurer > > Jason K.
