Hi, 

While going through ideas , I found this idea , Multivariate polynomials and factorization, using Gao's partial differential equations approach, very appealing . I wanted to know if this idea is outdated or is being considered for this year's GSoC . Also, it'd be great to have someone guiding from the start if the idea has any potential.

It's helpful if you can provide a link so that people can see what
you're referring to. I guess you're referring to this:
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/GSoC-Ideas#multivariate-polynomials-and-factorization

The information on the ideas page is out of date so you would need to
look into the code to see what is implemented and what is not. I have
recently done some work on this that could be a good starting point
for a project along these lines:
https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues/20874

More work is needed in this area and it is very important and would
make a good GSOC project. That being said I'm not sure who would
supervise it. My own knowledge for polys is limited but I could
partially supervise something like this.

Thank you Oscar, I'll keep in mind to put the reference next time.
Also, I went through the issue you just shared, it looks like a good idea for gsoc, could someone guide me on it? I have fairly good understanding of the algorithm and would start working on it right away, though some supervision would be of great help.
