Some quick comments:

* in addition to the misconceptions, explain what each external will
do with as much detail as possible on how you will achieve it

* don't start #4 with "etc.". Either fill it in with an additional
misconception or leave it off.

* expand your timeline so that you show times when you work on coding each class

* if possible, try to explain how each external may also be generally useful.

* make sure to include a reference to some of the work you've done so
far in preparation.

I'll try to have a look at your filter later today.

Best,
Jonathan
