I agree that proposals should be sent to the mailing list in a textual format inline. It's ok if you also send a link to a better formatted version of your proposal, so that people who prefer to read the better formatted version can do so. It's ok too, of course, if the final version uploaded into the GSoC web site is the better formatted version. Sending the textual version to the mailing list inline could make it easier for people who want to comment and discuss it, like patches are, which will help you make a better proposal. Later it might also help people searching the mailing list. Best, Christian.
