[Sugar-devel] GSoC 2025: Requesting a review for my GSoC proposal

[Mebin Thattil]

Hi Ibiam,
I have taken all your feedback and made appropriate changes to my proposal.
I would like it if you could go through it again and let me know what you
think.
Is this proposal good enough that I can take this and submit this through
the gsoc portal?
Thankyou,
Regards
