Can you please explain it in more details and answer the following questions: 1) Shall students them self submit proposal to that link? 2) Any student may submit, or we shall filter them somehow? 3) What to do with students that propose same thing (Multiprecision?..) -- Best regards, Antony Polukhin

students submit proposals themselves and anyone is allowed to do so. Afaik the process is as follows: google decides how many students will be supported to work for boost projects based on the number of proposals we get, so the more proposals we get the better. After the deadline, mentors rate the proposals and choose students, at most one for each project. This is how I understood things from when I was a GSoC student in 2011 - please correct me if I got it wrong, Boris. Best, Mario

Yes, correct (except that we review and rank proposals first before Google comes in again :). Most important for now: Students have to submit applications, and they have to do it themselves. Boris
