Hello,
My name is Jeremy Coffman. I am a second year student studying Computer Science at Brandeis University, with a possible focus on natural language processing. I have decided to apply to work on the Incremental Data Dumps project. My proposal can be found here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:J.a.coffman/GSoc_2013_Proposal
I know I'm rather close to the deadline, but I welcome any feedback you may have.
Thank you, Jeremy Coffman
Thanks for the email, Jeremy, and for your proposal. Since you haven't worked with MediaWiki at all before I have to ask: Have you started the steps in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_become_a_MediaWiki_hacker and worked on a small bug suitable for novices?
