[Dune-devel] Preparation of GSoC 2016 application

[Christoph Grüninger]

Hi Oliver,
it depends. If you have some features or changes in mind which add immediate benefit, it is ok. If it is more like clean our code, it will be a poor project. Nevertheless, students are asked to add their own ideas, so they still can use it for pretty cool projects.

Oberall I am not convinced that we should apply. I got zero responses/wiki edits from potential mentors. The project list is in a sad state, too. I will check on Sunday and decide whether I will prepare the application. I will listen to fellow Core devs if they bring up good arguments.

Bye
Christoph
