Hi, Just a note here:
This time there is no copy of the proposal on the GSoC portal. They allow students to specify a URL (expected to be public) where the proposal can be. They recommend a public google drive link, but you can give an alternate URL too. Hence, students can directly give the phabricator task's URL there. It would be a good idea to modify the wiki page about GSoC if this is fine. PS: I just submitted my proposal a few hours back Regards Abdeali JK On Tue, Mar 15, 2016 at 10:18 AM, Tony Thomas <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello all, > > Google announced the start of accepting proposals for GSoC 2016 few hours > ago.
