Hi Wenlin, Thanks for your interest in Julia GSoC. Please note that submissions close tomorrow, Friday, March 21 at 19:00 UTC and we cannot accept applications after that deadline.
If you would like to take up this project, I would encourage you to send in an application based on your emails as soon as possible to the GSoC website, taking into account our suggested guidelines: http://julialang.org/gsoc/guidelines/ Thanks, Jiahao Chen Staff Research Scientist MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory On Wed, Mar 12, 2014 at 10:14 AM, Wenlin Hu <hiroshima...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Ivar, > > Thanks for your advice.
