Hello, everyone!

Google Summer of Code [1] is yet again going to be held this year 
and we want to get in. Mentor organizations can apply starting 
the 19th of January so we have already begun preparing our 
application. To improve our chances of being selected we need to 
have strong project proposals (the more the better). As such, if 
you have any proposals, please feel free to post them here, 
however, ideally, you would also be willing to be the mentor for 
your proposal. Generally, we are in short supply of mentors so 
anyone who is willing to do that will be highly appreciated.

Regards,
RazvanN

as far as I can tell youve never listened to outsiders ideas for 
the language and you keep going with university students 
presumably form the same universitys I dont know who these people 
are, doing esoteric refactoring shit. Whats different this year.

You demand docs in some pretend format, but then just discard any 
you dislike anyway. I suggest dropping the pretense, whats the 
actual mythology here.

Better WASM support would be nice to have. Currently D WASM is 
mostly limited to -betterC subset, would be nice to have the 
entire language available, GC included. There's been some 
attempts at D runtime for WASM, but they never end up merged into 
the actual D mainline repo :(

Are you willing to mentor such a project? If not, do you have a 
suggestion for a potential mentor?
