Re: Possible mentor for Summer of Code project

[Daniel Kraft]

Hi Jordi,

thanks for you're bug suggestions in the other reply!  I'll try to 
tackle some of them (and may also look through the bug-list "randomly" 
in case something sounds interesting and do-able).

Thanks for your support on the profiler-idea!  In principle, I'd also 
like to implement this myself and independently of GSoC, but of course I 
don't know how much time I have to work on this if I did something else 
over the summer; so it may be a smaller version or may take a lot more 
time if I can't do it as part of GSoC ;)

Regarding a mentor, I believe that the most important part is to have 
someone "officially" mentoring the proposal -- in the end, I already 
think it's best to discuss things with the community on the list rather 
than privately, so if I need guidance or comments on design plans (or 
whatever), I won't trouble a single person but the mailing list :D

Yours,
Daniel
