Add WasmEdge proposal for GSoD

[alabulei1]

Because the proposal is too long, so I am inserting the link here. Let me know if it works. Thanks

Thanks for the proposal!

We are looking at the best way to manage several proposals with the GSoD program (https://groups.google.com/g/season-of-docs-discuss/c/PxTWKQfblLc). We'll keep you updated and review this proposal regardless of how GSoD suggests we proceed.

Got it. Thanks @nate-double-u Please keep me informed of any updates regarding the submission.

As per the Google PMs comments about org applications:

We still ask that each project apply separately; if a project is selected, they can choose CNCF as their payment option with Open Collective when we begin setting up grant payments.

Projects can feel free to add in their application that payments would be handled via CNCF but that's not a factor in our decision making for what projects to accept.

We ask that you submit this project proposal directly with GSoD, rather than going through us (the CNCF). Sorry for the confusion around this @alabulei1.

@alabulei1 I wanted to do my best and review the proposal but I cannot add any inline comments on the Github discussion.

I would be happy to do it if you create a PR somewhere (could be this repository too).

No worries. Well received and thanks for your help. @nate-double-u I will submit the proposal to GSoD after @aliok kindly helps me review the proposal.

Hi @aliok I have created a repo called GSoD2023 under the WasmEdge project. You can find the proposal here. Looking forward to your review. Thank you so much!

@alabulei1 I've added my comments here: WasmEdge/GSoD2023#1

I think it looks good overall :) Thanks for putting it together.

/close

I am closing this one as we tracked the proposal in WasmEdge/GSoD2023#1 and WasmEdge/GSoD2023#2.

Thanks a lot @alabulei1 ! ...and, again, let us know if you need any assistance with the GSoD application.

Best of luck with the application @alabulei1, let us know how it goes -- we're rooting for you!
