Hi everyone. I have also updated the GSoC ideas page by adding another physics-related idea on Control theory. https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-Ideas#symbolic-control-systems-sympyphysicscontrol
Since the Control module <https://docs.sympy.org/dev/modules/physics/control/index.html> was added to SymPy last summer, it would be great to attract some users as it can turn out to be quite useful to them. Other fixes/features are also appreciated because of its early stages. :-) Have an amazing week!
