Hey everyone,
I'm Will, a graduate student from the University of Houston and I'm planning
on applying the GSoC this year.

I'm proposing to seamlessly integrate (seamlessly, as in, make the interface
pretty and subtle) metadata to the media library and pages systems. This
way, users can find all of the wordpress data via search instead of just
post-based information. With that said, I'd also like to create some
advanced search options for type filtering. For example, you could search
for the tag "apple" and find everything about apples. Perhaps you just want
to find images of apples, so we'll filter everything else out. Maybe images
and posts, but not video or sound. You get the idea.

Here's my full proposal:

Any suggestions/ideas/thoughts/anything?

Thanks,
William Holtkamp
