Dear Students, Last night I have gone though some of the proposals submitted to google-melange system. Some proposals look smart and some proposals are hard to read. Here my concern is not the technical aspects but the formatting of the proposal. Google-melange text editor provides enough facilities for you to make your proposal submission easy to read. You can bold, underline, italic, align, indenting, bullets and more. Please feel free to use them and make the submission more readable. Just a copy and past from the wiki make things hard to read. Bare mind your submission on the google-melange is the main text that mentor go through, therefore presenting it nice would be an extra advantage you achieve. If you are not already gone through the proposal writing section on students-guide please do refer to the following link, http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/ch008_writing-a-proposal/ If you need to insert an image/ diagram please cite it and provide the link at the bottom. You can use the fedora wiki to upload the image or any other public space where anyone can access. However I think it is good to use fedora infra such as fedora wiki as much as possible. If you need any clarification or more information or support, feel free to reply this thread. Looking forward to read some smart looking proposals. Happy Summer Coding !! -- Regards, Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera(bckurera) Fedora Ambassador - APAC region Event Liaison - Design Team Email: bckurera at fedoraproject.org | IRC: bckurera
