GSoC 2024 Contributors Announced

[Aaron Meurer]

Hi everyone. As many of you may have noticed, Google has announced the results
for Google Summer of Code. I am proud to announce that 5 people have
been accepted to work on SymPy this year. The following projects have been
accepted:

Abhishek Kumar, Improving and Expanding the functionalities of the
SymPy's Control Module.: Nikhil Maan

Arnab Nandi, Improving Series Expansions and Limit Computations:
Anutosh Surendra Bhat, Oscar Benjamin

Hwayeon Kang, Implementing Specific Forces and Torques: Jason Moore,
Timo Stienstra

Riccardo Di Girolamo, Sympy for Classical Mechanics: Developing and
Benchmarking Equations of Motion Generation Methods: Jason Moore, Timo
Stienstra

Shishir Kushwaha, Extending Continuum Mechanics Module: Advait Pote,
Ishan Pandhare

Join me in congratulating them on their acceptance.

To everyone who was accepted, you should be receiving an email from your
mentors soon to discuss how you will be communicating over the summer about
your project. You should meet with your mentors once a week during the summer
to go over your progress. Most people choose to use video calls for these
meetings, but you may use another method, such as a public chatroom, if you
prefer.

Note that in many cases you may interact with some mentors as your primary
mentors, and other mentors will be backup mentors. Please contact the backup
mentors if you are not able to get ahold of your primary mentor(s). If you
cannot get ahold of either, please let me and Oscar Benjamin
(oscar.j....@gmail.com) know immediately.

I would like all of us to strongly encourage students to submit pull requests
early and often. This will go a long ways towards making sure that you don't
end the summer with a ton of code written that never gets merged. Students
should help review pull requests by other students, so that we don't get
bogged down reviewing so much code.

We also require that all students keep a weekly blog of their work over the
summer. If you don't already have a blog, you should start one. I recommend
using either Wordpress, Blogger, or creating your own blog on GitHub pages. If
you are savvy enough to set it up, I recommend GitHub pages, but if you
aren't, both Wordpress and Blogger are good enough.

The GSoC coding period officially starts May 27
(https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline).

I would like to thank all the students who applied this year and everyone who
submitted a patch. I would also like to thank all the mentors for helping
review patches and proposals.

This summer is looking to be another very productive one for SymPy, and I look
forward to it!

Dear Aaron,

I am happy to join in congratulating the guys selected for GSoC!

I am a retired salesman (studied engineering 45+ years ago) and I play around with sympy.phyiscs.mechanics to pass time. VERY enjoyable!
I have never made a PR, and the equation: me + GitHub / computers = complete mess holds true.

These two projects look interesting to me:

Hwayeon Kang, Implementing Specific Forces and Torques: Jason Moore, Timo Stienstra
Riccardo Di Girolamo, Sympy for Classical Mechanics: Developing and Benchmarking Equations of Motion Generation Methods: Jason Moore, Timo Stienstra

Is there a way, I can 'see' what will be done there?

Thanks & take care!

Peter

Respected members,

I would like to express my gratitude for being given the opportunity to work on a project in GSoC. 

I have been helped on multiple occasions on this group and on GitHub and would like to thank everyone

for being so supportive and hope I would be able to do the same for others.  
I look forward to working with you.

Thanks

Shishir Kushwaha

Yes, I probably should have shared this initially, but you can see a
list of the projects with their summaries at
