To add project ideas create a pull request for this repository. Just copy the
project idea template into the perl or raku directory
(or create a new one if it does not fit exactly in any of them) and fill it
out. Use a separate file for each project idea. Please also add your project
idea to the Project ideas list above, itemized. If you have an idea but no
mentor or the idea is not entirely fleshed out, add it to incomplete project
ideas and try to complete it. Ideas without a mentor will have to be removed
before this list is submitted to Google.
Project ideas need to meet certain criteria described on this Google page. When you use the template you should be good to go. If you have an idea and want to discuss it before adding anything, discuss it here or add a new issue.
