GSoC have three project lengths:

  • Small Projects: ~90 hours.
  • Medium Projects: ~175 hours.
  • Large Projects: ~350 hours.

If you have any suggestions for small projects (~90 hours) like website/docs improvements, search system improvements, or tutorials or more examples of turing usage then just let me know and I will add them!

I'm sorry, I don't think I ever agreed to be a GSoC mentor? Was this list of projects discussed somewhere?

Ohh sorry, It's discussed in #gsoc in Turing Slack, not a full discussion, just minor mentions. Let me know if you are interested in mentoring.

Additionally, rule caches (the stacks inside `OpaqueClosure`s) must be Task-specific; sharing them across Tasks causes pushes and pops to interleave incorrectly.
The work involves writing rules for the `ccall`s that enter and exit threaded regions, ensuring atomic tangent updates, and making rule caches Task-local without relying on `threadid()`.

@sunxd3, please take a look at MCMCTempering.jl and see how it can be consolidated with Pegions.jl
