Here are a few references you should find useful
while working on your proposal:

1. I suggest you to read through the Boost GSoC overview,
especially the "What students should do now" section
and pages linked from there

https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code%3A-Overview

2. Add overview of your proposal to Boost.GIL section here
https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code:-2019

3. Check GIL's README; you may consider subscribing to
boost-gil list and joining the Gitter room
https://github.com/boostorg/gil/blob/develop/README.md#community

4. Become familar with GIL's development guidelines
https://github.com/boostorg/gil/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md

No, you are not.

If you have any specific question related to any of those resources,
please, do not hesitate to ask!

Good luck!
