@Gryllida,
I really appreciate your feedback. They really helped me a lot. And thanks
again for your time.
Currently I'm modifying my proposal according to your feedback (Have done
some modifications and need to do some more).
As this is research oriented project, some details provided in the proposal
may change according to the requirements identified in the 1st phase of the
project. So I think feedback from all of you will help me to refine the
requirements of the project. As the requirements are not fully refined yet,
I have included only a rough time line that is also need to be refined at
the end of each phase for the next phase.
And certainly I am looking forward for feedback and be flexible to take
them into account as it is a basic way of learning. I am a quick learner
and interested in challenging work. So I am looking forward to contribute
to this project.

Hi Maduranga,
I had shown you that your first mock picture may be changed a bit, and
linked you to a couple relevant pages which describe the system you'd be
developing in more detail.
Now I also noticed that in the past experience section, I would suggest
that you provide links to your code contributions. The reviewers will want
to see what you coded without manually looking you up on the web.
As a part of what you'd expect, if approved, would be thorough feedback
from your mentors and Grant Review Committees multiple times throughout
your work. I hope you are sufficiently flexible to take the feedback into
account. It's a challenging task there. The mentors would also provide you
with code-base from a previous project which did similar tasks.
Gryllida.

@Gryllida,
Again thank you for the reply and sorry for being late to reply back
(last
few days I was busy with a conference in my
internship place). I have one
more question. What is meant by
"
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Application_scoring_system-
roles and expectations @ IdeaLab (this is for any
ideas, not just grants,
ie GSoC things can also go there)"
In your first reply(specially " this is for any ideas, not just grants").
And please inform if there is any improvement needed to the proposal.
Regards,
Maduranga
