Hi all, We are left with just 3 days to Student application deadline for GSoC 2015. It will be in the best favor of interested students to prepare and submit a proposal before the deadline. The proposal can be as per the best understanding of the student about the project idea and if applicable, the student may discuss the proposal outcomes(deliverable's) in advance with the associated project community. Due to deadline, if a student fails to have any prior discussion with the community, he can prepare and submit proposal as per the best of his understanding about proposed idea. There is no specific format/template for the proposal. But, students must take care of including Abstract, General BIO(brief), Expected outcomes(deliverable's), Academic/Programming/Open Source experience, Project Goals, Project Schedule Outline, References etc. with citations.
