Hey all, I have updated my google melange page with all the required details here: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/student/google/gsoc2014/sharkash/5668600916475904 I will be glad to consider any feedback that you may have. Subha: There seems to be something wrong with the INCF mailing list. I will post this there as soon as it is working.
