Hi everyone,
I posted an idea earlier this weekend to the list and received feedback --
and I really appreciate it! It made me realize that the idea I proposed was
a little vague and elaborate and sounded too complex. So I re-drafted it
and simplified it a lot, and I would really appreciate your opinions again.
I think it can be doable for a GSoC project.
The idea briefly: My idea is to develop a plugin for MediaWiki that enables
the easy embedding of interactive physics demos in wiki articles, using a
Javascript physics engine like Box2web (which is based on Box2D)
You can see the new edited proposal here:

Also, since this idea does not appear in the main idea list, I am hoping
there may be a mentor available :)
Good! There is not much time left. Please file a Bugzilla report and
submit your proposal to the GSoC site:
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2013
You are also encouraged to submit the proposal to Outreach Program for
Women. That requires also a first contribution related with your project
proposal. Any suggestions? I'm no an expert in this area... Maybe
something related with Commons / media types?
Anyway, the idea is that you just continue with the assumption that a
mentor will appear. Anybody interested?
Thank you and good luck!
