Hello Digvijay,

thanks for your interest in the library and GSoC!

I would say that the first thing is to work on your proposal. You have
to choose a topic and then do the programming tests. You can also
propose a topic. On the other hand, trying to create bonds with the
community like fixing issues in Boost.Geometry is always a good idea
and only strengthen your future application.

Have a look at the websites from previous Boost.Geometry GSoC
students. The information the might be useful.

All the best,
Vissarion

Can anyone help me how to initiate contributing towards this library? I have a good command over C++ and have a good knowledge of geometry from competitve programming.
