Hi Vicky,
I have been pining for the newsletter extension for ages. Would you work on
that, please? This is my personal request, and as far as I know there is no
official list of priorities. I can just say that I for one feel that the
newsletter extension would be very valuable, and would be a high-visibility
project which could look great on your CV.

must leave untainted for those who come after us,The fertile earth, in
which truth may grow in bright places, tended by many hands,And the broad
fall of sunshine, warming our first steps toward knowing how much we do not
know.*

Hi all!
I joined to this mailing list because I am a MediaWiki user and I like
FOSS, I
would like to contribute to Wikimedia Foundation by participating to GSoC
2015.
From the ideas list I liked more Extension to identify and delete spam
pages
and Newsletter MediaWiki extension, I like web development but I usually
don't
have much time to expand my knowledge, and this would be a very good
occasion
for me to both contribute to the community, learn more interesting stuff,
know
better Wikimedia community, and have the possibility to do this gorgeous
stuff
full time this summer :)
I have recently completed Aerospace Engineering and I am student of
Electronic
Engineering right now, as hobby I have done web development and design, so
I
know HTML, CSS, JavaScript and various web development technology such as
JQuery and AJAX, while I have basic knowledge of SQL, Python and PHP.
I would know which of the ideas I like is priority?
I am very motivated to do this project and I would definitely learn a lot
of
things, moreover i would like to continue to cooperate with Wikimedia
community also after the GSoC ends
Thanks for this possibility!
Cheers!
Vicky
