[L2Ork-dev] Feedback on GSOC draft proposal

[Tanmay Gujar]

Hello and thanks for the feedback!
I'll make the changes to the draft so that the REPL would use a socket
connection instead.

As for the delete function I was working with the info presented here Pd
Internal messages
<https://puredata.info/community/pdwiki/PdInternalMessages>.

Best,
Tanmay
