Re-introducing GSOC17

Hello Devs,
I am Nirmal Singhania, B.tech 4th Year from NIIT University. Last Year i
applied for "Clustering of search results"Project but was not selected
unfortunately.
I have gone through the ideas list and am really interested in
project"Learning to rank click data mining"
Last year Olly gave me reference to papers relating to this project when i
asked for other ways to contribute to xapian outside of GSOC.
I was unable to catch up with it because of other commitments.

For now,
I have read the papers and have a basic understanding of how it will work
with xapian.
Please Guide me on how to proceed with this project.

Thank You.


Regards,
Nirmal Singhania
