GSoC 2016 Proposal Review and Selection

Posted by Slurpee on March 30, 2016 at 12:14am

Calling all Google Summer of Code 2016 mentors (and people available to review proposals). Contact me here via my drupal.org contact form or IRC in #drupal-google if you're interested in reviewing which GSoC 2016 proposals Drupal should select. Since new GSoC web app does not have a rating system, I spent time creating a spreadsheet listing all proposals with a good amount of details about each project. Please note, proposal review is not a quick or easy process.

Following are two real applications from Google Summer of Code 2014 which we thought are good enough to put up as examples. Having said that, none of them are perfect, so please treat them as inspirational material, and not as templates to copy from:
