Hello Swapnil Negi, Thank you for your proposal! This project has been in the pipeline for long and I'm very excited to see your interest in working on it. I have very few comments for now, but the discussion can definitely continue open:
So the timeline that you are proposing is: 1) Python3 Compatible 2) Implement Plugin Architecture 3) Restructure code in favor of functional behavior 4) work on UI if time allows And I agree with this timeline, as it puts core focus on the architectural overhaul without disregarding other details aside. - If I understand correctly, your first task to tackle is the Py3k compatibility, which is great. This is definitely something that needs to be done, as there is a continuous effort on making the whole GNURadio Python3 compatible. But Python2 is not EOL for little less than 2 years more, so continuous compatibility is something that has to be kept in mind. Let's take your proposed code for raiseException, whose implementation won't work on Python2. There are ways to ensure compatibility (using wrappers from 'six' for example, which adds a dependency - which can be discussed) I, however, see that the Python3 branch from GNU Radio already implements the syntax that you are proposing, so I might being just too picky on this. I expect comments on the matter from the list. - I see that you have put efforts in contributing already to the project by fixing some issues on the tool, and there is hardly a better way to get used to it and contribute to the project. No comment here apart from saying that we do appreciate you took that path as it puts you into context and improves the project. Win-Win! - I would work on the format of the proposal as well to help you make a better impression and increases your chances of this being accepted. In your timeline, be sure to explicitly say what deliverable can be expected when. It's good to know when you are going to start working on something, but it is also important to know when you are expected to have it finished. Words like "Milestone" or even "Deliverable" might make this clear, maybe around the evaluation dates. - I see that you included your CV, which is nice to have, but do you _really_ want your personal data (like phone and address) out in the open? I might come back with more comments, but for now this is looking promising!
