We have three students for the Click to Dial project, as I have
mentioned before, so we can come up with three times as much stuff for
them collectively to do. I request your thoughts on which directions
in which to extend the project.
I have collected feature proposals and other tasks for the Click to Dial
project and organized them as a bunch of large tasks. Are any of them
most important or interesting to you, or do you have suggestions of
others? View the list alternatively as EtherCalc or CSV.

You can respond by emailing, editing EtherCalc, or patching the CSV.
Thanks
We are lucky to have three student interns for the Click To Dial project
this summer [*], so we will do some extra planning: We will consider new
features, division the project into three components, and allocation of
our four mentors among three students. I think these all would benefit
from the input of others on this mailing list; is it acceptable to use
the present mailing list for this planning over the next three weeks?

Hey.
I've written a proposal on the topic : "Click To Dial Popup Window for the
Linux Desktop" for GSoC.
I have also submitted the draft on the GSoC portal.
Would appreciate any feedback or feature requests

Hi all,
I'm starting this thread to track contact from potential interns and
mentors for this project in GSoC and Outreachy.
If you are interested as a student or mentor please feel free to reply
on this thread. Projects won't go ahead without sufficient mentors so
if you or anybody you know may be interested in mentoring that would
help a lot.
Other members of the community are also welcome to reply to individual
students, for example, if you see a student in the city where you live
please feel free to invite them to a local event.
I'm embedding a link in the wiki with this thread ID so replies from
applicants should be threaded for everybody's convenience.
Full project details on the wiki[1].
Regards,
Daniel
