Re: GSoC

[Alexei Podtelezhnikov]

Dear applicants,

GSoC is a competition.

We'll select the best and the most realistic proposal for 6 weeks of
work. Do not try to boil the ocean or start from scratch! I guess you
are allowed to coordinate right now to make sure that your proposals
do not overlap, but you do not have to. The rules are straightforward
and we do not intend to bend them.

Right now you are competing by writing the best proposal you can.
