The application to Google will likely be due early February. So the new
year is a good time to check the description of any projects you want to
mentor on the Octave wiki [1] and update the status as needed.

Sincerely,

Nir

The GSoC 2018 mentoring organization application deadline is in about two
weeks, January, 23 [2].

Another good project for someone who wants to work on the GUI would be to clean up the Variable Editor and then proceed to write a Property Inspector.  The graphic objects have so many properties that it would be quite convenient to show them in a spreadsheet form and be able to toggle the boolean properties, select from a list for radio properties, etc.  It's not my area of expertise so I couldn't be a mentor, but I do think it would be a good addition.

Nir, are you so kind to manage this years application again?

Best,
Kai
