Hello Aaron, I am interested for the project " <https://numfocus.org/blog/numfocus-awards-small-development-grants-to-projects>SymPy 1.1 Release Support" - Small Development Grants <https://numfocus.org/blog/numfocus-awards-small-development-grants-to-projects>. I read the project description and understood it. I can see that SymPy 1.3 has been already released, which was manually written. And release note 1.4 is getting updated by SymPy Bot *automatically*. So point
> Writing release notes for the aforementioned approximately 500 changes since version 1.0. is not required right? Hence that means project is all about : 1. Making sure any blocking issues are fixed before the release is made. ... 2. Update the automated script that does the actual release [ *Can you please explain a bit this point? means what kind of update is required]* 3. Make a release candidate, and fix any major issues that are found in it by the community. 4. Make the final release, including uploading the tarball to PyPI, and updating various websites. .. Please share any link related to previous year work on this project, so that I can understand it more clearly. -- Also, I found "SymPy: MatchPy C++ code generator for SymPy/symengine" <https://numfocus.org/blog/fall-2018-open-source-development-grants> project challenging. I try to understand the problem statement and going through some related links like : - GSoC 2017 Report Abdullah Javed Nesar: Rule based Integrator <https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-2017-Report-Abdullah-Javed-Nesar:-Rule-based-Integrator> - GSoC 20187 Fina blog post <https://nesar2017.wordpress.com/2017/09/01/gsoc-2017-rubi-integrator-final-report/> Please let me know if you have any other link in mind, which shows the next part of the work done on this project.
