I'm working exclusively on my proposal for the past week reading papers and benchmarks, while writing digests about them to include in my proposal, in favor of roaring method. As you also said, having a proposal with references and digests about previous work, discussions and papers does help regardless of being selected. Technical question: will roaring bitmaps' random access feature help with introducing the "table of contents" feature? Or is it bitmap compression agnostic? > > https://lore.kernel.org/git/20220406200440.27010-1-chakrabortyabhradeep79@xxxxxxxxx/ > https://lore.kernel.org/git/20220409184350.1124-3-shivam828787@xxxxxxxxx/ Thanks, I've already read both of them and used them as guideline for my proposal. > > Feel free to take a look at mine and Kaartic's responses to each of > those, two, since they may influence your planning / which sub-project > sounds most interesting / etc. I saw your and Kaartic's reviews and incorporated them into my proposal. > > Thanks, > Taylor Thanks, Plato
