No.

What I interpret from a private e-mail from Aleix is that the proposal
does not explain in detail how will the plots be implemented in
KAlgebra. I think that is a valid claim, and you are left with a
couple of options:

1. Look further into how are plots implemented in KAlgebra and improve
your proposal, which will make your project at least twice as hard as
it is right now
2. Drop the plots from the whole proposal, which simplifies your
project a bit (the plot part was never a central part of the project
in my opinion)
3. Make your plotting-related goal to generate a proposal for adding
Geogebra support in KAlgebra, which is a clever compromise: you commit
yourself to doing the research needed to do the part you will not be
able to do, and your deliverable would be an actual project idea,
properly detailed and documented, that we can later re-use in another
mentoring program.

Aleix, do you agree with all (or anything) of the above?
