This wasn't meant to be an accusation. Sorry if I made it sound like one. The point is that various comments you made on my proposal as well as others, made me conclude that you have totally different opinions about what is appropriate for a SoC task. As for that other proposal, your intial comment sounded very much like you do not consider it a suitable task at all; when I asked (on IRC) why you think so, you suggested I write something up, but didn't follow up on my questions. I'm still not sure what you really want, when talking about "concise wording". I don't know how the proposals are presented to the students. When we gathered ideas for GGI, we had a single sentence/wordgroup as title for each task, and one or more paragraphs explaining it: Introducing the relevant concepts, pointing out what is missing or what could be improved, and explaining what the student is supposed to do specifically. Anyways, I guess it's too late for this year anyways. Maybe next year. (Yeah, my fault -- I should have made the proposal much earlier.) -antrik- _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
