There's another project that I would like to discuss with a mentor, and that has been previously been taken up Series <https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-Ideas#series-expansions> : I have taken a look at the work done by previous GSoC mentees, and the report <https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2022-:-Improving-Series-Expansions-and-Limit-Computations-Report-by-Anutosh-Bhat> suggests that there is still a good amount of work to be done in the project. I do understand what needs to be done in the project, and would like to discuss it with a mentor. It would help me a lot if someone willing to mentor these projects would reply to this thread, so I could get a clear picture of the demands of these projects. Ishan
