First, welcome to GCC, and I appreciate your enthousiasm! On 2023-12-30T22:30:37+0530, CS21B062 ARPIT GUPTA wr= ote: > Dear GCC Community, > > I hope this email finds you well. My name is Arpit and I am writing to > express my interest in participating in GSoC, specifically for the > Rust Front-End project at GCC. You're, however, too late for GSoC 2023 (..., which you'd referenced at the end of your email), but also still too early for GSoC 2024; see . Building the compiler and beginning to experiment as well as reaching out to the community is always a good start, so if you're interested in GCC/Rust specifically, please have a look at .
