-===== Idea template ===== 
- 
-Use the following template for adding your own ideas. 
- 
-Create a project header if there isn't one already and add your ideas under the corresponding project. 
- 
-The project header should be followed by link(s) to pages related to the project. If your project has its own wiki page describing it, it would make a link. From the link(s) you provide, at the very least, the student should be able to get information on general description of the project, maintainer's IRC nick or email and the location of code repository and bug tracker. 
- 
-Before suggesting an idea, take into consideration that students will be working for 3 months on it, so please refrain from suggesting ideas that are likely to be finished too early or too late. 
- 
-When writing an idea, make sure that you don't use any Tox-specific jargon that a student won't understand. Write in simple terms, so that college students unfamiliar with Tox could understand. 
- 
-It's suggested to always include your (mentor's) email into the **Mentor** field, because we found that it's a lot easier to follow which student is which through emails, rather than having hundreds of students joining IRC, asking you questions while you are AFK, and leaving afterwards. It also helps when you need to find your previous conversation with a student. 
- 
-You are encouraged to look into Ideas pages for the previous GSoC years: [[developers:gsoc:2014:ideas|2014]], [[developers:gsoc:2015:ideas|2015]].
