Dear Sirs, I am grateful for your valuable feedback and suggestions. I have updated my proposal based on the inputs given by you. The split-up of the deliverables on the ideas page indeed helped me understand the requirements more clearly.
The link to my updated proposal is https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Karthikprasad/gsoc2012proposal I request you and everyone to kindly skim through my proposal once again and suggest changes/additions. I am very excited about this project and working with you; and truth be told, 23rd April seems like ages ahead.

However, I think you should flush out more details on the proposed project. Without more familiarity with corpus (and with no links to find that info) - it's hard for everyone to weigh in equally or to make sure your project gets the full consideration you'd like. > > -greg aka varnent > > > On Apr 3, 2012, at 4:18 PM, Amir E.
