The ideas page for the 2016 Google Summer of Code is now up:

http://wiki.dlang.org/GSOC_2016_Ideas

Right now it is remarkably similar to the 2015 page!  The Google 
folks seem rather busy, so maybe no one would notice, but if 
anyone has ideas for new projects that would be fantastic.

Also, if anyone feels an existing project needs to be withdrawn, 
please let me know.

Cheers,

Craig

Please withdraw Cmsed. I've since stopped working on it. In favor of writing a web application server. Which should solve most of the problems it had.

Cool, I did not know there're plans for std.i18n. By the way, I'm not student anymore, so no GSOC for me.

Would you be interested in mentoring that? Also, for anything Phobos related it would be good to have general consensus that the project would eventually make its way into std.experimental at least. The discussion you linked to proposed the idea, but there wasn't much follow on. Perhaps a proposal should be floated on the General thread.

I am still in D kindergarten and this is way out of my depth. Sorry for the noise.

No need to apologize. Maybe if you can't do it, we can find someone who would .. but I always ask as a matter of principle :o)

Sadly I am not really sure what that comment was suggesting. Given there was a claim of 3x speed up there must have been code. If that code could be put forward then experiments could be run. Possibly something for GSoC in that alone. --=20 Russel. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.winder ekiga.n= et 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: russel winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
