Thanks a lot for being honest ^_^
But it wasn't just you. There was another fork/delete several hours ago. I
was especially concerned since there was a recent case of plagiarism. But
maybe that person tried to open it via Desktop text editor like you did.
Perhaps I overreacted. I'll consider putting my proposal back up.
Thanks,
Sandilya Jandhyala
