Hi everyone,
As a final year undergraduate student with expertise in Java, JavaScript frameworks, and utilizing Selenium for web automation. GSoC represents an exciting opportunity for me to dive into open-source development. I'm eager to contribute and learn under the mentorship of experienced professionals. Looking forward to potentially joining GSoC and collaborating with the open-source community.

Quick note that I have removed the "New operation to add blank rows to a project" project idea from the list because we realized that someone had already been working on it before GSoC. I sincerely apologize for folks who intended to apply for this project. I will try to come up with more project ideas. Remember, you can also propose your own project even if it's not mentioned on the ideas page.
I have added three more projects, taken from our ideas list from the previous years. I hope this gives prospective applicants a bit more choice! Again you are also free to propose projects on other topics and I'm happy to help you improve your proposals before their submission on the GSoC portal.

Are there any guidelines on what makes a project's size small, medium, or large? Does it match the hour estimates listed on the ideas page: 90, 175, or 350 hours, respectively?

Yes. https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/faq#how_much_time_does_gsoc_participation_take

@steve, yes, it is based on the hour estimate. It must be one of the three options: 90h, 175h, or 350h; GSoC does not accept other estimates. You can find instructions on how to write good proposal in the GSoC guide.

Hi @antonin_d Here is my draft gsoc application: Openrefine Project Proposal Draft - Google Docs, Please review and give feedback. Thanks!
Hi @Redeem_Grimm,
I'm afraid I won't be able to give you any feedback before the submission deadline, as it is in 2 hours.
The team will review all submitted proposals after the deadline but there won't be any opportunity to make changes to them.
Best of luck!
