[SciPy-Dev] About Application for GSoC

Hello!

Just like you, I am a student who just joined the SciPy community and
applying for the GSoC. You should start by checking the project ideas (if
you haven't already) here:
https://github.com/scipy/scipy/wiki/GSoC-project-ideas

If you find something interesting there or you have your own idea, I
suggest that you:

   1. Start working on your draft and you upload it right away so that your
   project can be elegible (if you wait until the deadline and the melange
   system fails due to overload or any other reason you won't be allowed to
   participate).
   2. Post a link to your draft to this mailing list so you can have
   feedback by knowledgeable members who are interested and can tell you
   whether your idea is realistic and also, if the community is interested in
   your idea.
   3. Edit your uploaded draft to reflect the community suggestions (you
   can make changes until the deadline so if you can't upload your changes you
   will still have your draft).
   4. Just try to be active in the community, they will generally provide
   very good feedback and point you in the right direction.

You may find these links useful too:

https://github.com/scipy/scipy/wiki/GSoC-2014-:-Discrete-Wavelet-Transform-proposal-draft

As a fellow student I wish you luck and I welcome you to the community.

Regards,
Abraham Escalante.
