Awesome! :D

Firstly, I'd like to ask if any of the projects are on a priority. I know
for a fact that the significance of the Freebase alignment would be pretty
huge, but I was just wondering if any of the three projects I listed out
below are of higher priority than the others.

Coming to specific questions:

For 5.3. Parallel processing in DBpedia extraction Framework:
1) As far as I know, Docker images are all specific to an operating system
(atleast as per [1]). So is there a specific OS being targeted or are we
planning to use a specific base image?
2) I noticed the 2014 GSOC ideas page[2] which mentioned about not having
access to a cluster. Has there been an update on this since them?

For 5.7. Reverse Engineering and Aligning Freebase with DBpedia
I actually had the opportunity to interact a bit with Prof. Sheth from
Knoesis (whose work is one of the references provided [3] ) a couple of
months ago when he visited campus. I wanted to know what
heuristics/techniques are likely to be employed for this? Is the plan to
follow something similar to the other reference paper[4]?Or a variation? or
something totally novel? Is the end goal to create an ontology that
*completely* conforms to both Freebase and DBpedia or one that *mostly*
conforms to both?

On an updation note, I managed to get the extractor up and running on my
local system without any issues. For anyone else having issues, do check
out [5] which has everything you need to get started!

Looking forward to some feedback

Thanks

Navin
