<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi Rahul,<div> Thanks for your proposal, I have two comments:</div><div>- Please include the links to your PRs or issues opened. Even if they are few in number, we look for quality over quantity and listing them in your proposal helps everyone take a look at your work on the codebase.</div><div>- The excel sheet was used to evaluate the current state of the sugar activities and not report progress. Moreover, it was done to demonstrate that you have taken the effort to look up most activities that need improvement. In my opinion, reporting progress using excel sheet isn't a good idea since each activity will have different requirements (feature additions or bug fixes) it might be difficult to put it in categories.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Apr 10, 2021 at 11:43 AM A RAHUL <<a href="mailto:f20191312@hyderabad.bits-pilani.ac.in">f20191312@hyderabad.bits-pilani.ac.in</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"> Thanks for the feedback..<div>It is good to know that the activities selected could be changed during the program, thanks for this flexibility.<br><div>According to my findings in the last 2 weeks, I have taken a look at these 7 activities which I look upon to work:</div><div>1. collabedit: undo, redo, copy and paste keys not working properly.
