Hi Julia,

As a student eager to participate in the DBpedia project during the 2024 GSoC, I have a question regarding the proposal submission process.

I would like to clarify whether it is recommended to wait for someone within the organization to share project ideas in the #gsoc2024-ideas channel. Should I then focus on developing solutions for these proposed ideas, or is it preferable for me to generate my own project ideas and draft the proposal accordingly?

I appreciate your time in addressing my query. :smiley:

Best wishes,
Zhaoyan

Hi,
In the coming week we will put our ideas online here in the forum. If there are preparatory tasks, you can complete them and contact the mentors. If you have an idea of your own, you can post it here and find mentors to support it.

Best,
Julia
