Joseph S. GSoC project proposal

Hello,

Please find attached a draft of a project proposal for a 2013 Google Summer
of Code project.

It's based on the ``Internationalization checker overhaul'' section from
your page at http://www.w3.org/2013/03/gsoc2013 , and on my discussions
with Alexandre Bertails over IRC.

I expect I can do a lot of work on it before next Friday, but the core idea
is there. I would appreciate any advice, particularly on how realistic you
think the project is. Or rather, how realistic you think my interpretation
of the `starting point' idea is. Otherwise the section about my open source
experience (§2.3) is probably the weakest part of the proposal; I've tried
to fill it out in the same vein as someone who has no work experience
applying for their first job. Do you think this will stand in the way of
success?

Further notes: It's in PDF format because I use LaTeX to write documents,
when the time comes I shall paste in the text at
https://google-melange.appspot.com/gsoc/ and use their inline HTML editor
to format it. I have added placeholders for recommendations from my
professors. Based on your response to this initial draft, I shall fetch
these recommendations next week and include them in my final submission.

Best wishes,

--
