Thanks, this is what I wanted to hear. I wrote the proposal from my point of view. I'm prepared to change the size of the task and schedule on mentors and developers comments. I'm also trying to understand your development cycle, to get that more precise. But I want also say that I'm prepared for a lot of work. I have the time in this period. If I understand correctly, you mean to divide this task in more terms? And do less more precise.
