I’d love for better Public Transport routing to be added.
Your proposal should have as much information about you, as possible. Please send us your CV, link to your LinkedIn, or other portfolios.
I wonder why that's important. Does it really matter who the person is making and implementing the proposal? And if this is for students, what are the chances of them having a LinkedIn? If I read that, it would immediately trigger my inferiority complex.
IMO, if the person understands the source material, provides a good implementation plan, and doesn't sound like somebody fresh off the boat in the land of programming, CV, linkedin, and portfolios seem a little much.
Because they are selecting proposals for the program, which includes a stipend (https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/help/student-stipends) of $1,500-$6,000 for the summer. So the process looks a little more like the process for applying for an internship.
