GSoC Project Opportunity

[Markéta Sluková]

Hi, I am currently working on my Masters thesis regarding rank metric McEliece cryptosystems. From what I have understood, there was a GSoC project on this few years back. Since I will be working with Sage, I was wondering if there was any opportunity to combine my work with a GSoC project?

Best wishes,
Marketa

Sure, your GSoC project can have an overlap with your school work, nothing wrong with it.

My question was meant more along the lines of possible suggestions what specifically would be a good project to work on and if there are any mentors that would be willing to supervise it. Since there was a rank metric project few years ago, I don't want to submit a proposal on something that's already been done.

You should check whether it actually was done and accepted into Sage.
In fact, it looks it was never started, see:
https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/21352
One can also see some Sage code for in
http://digitalcommons.csbsju.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1019&context=honors_theses

Yes indeed, there could be code somewhere on the net, of questionable
quality etc.,
and an engineering task of getting it into Sage, with proper design,
documentation, tests, etc.
