If a student wants to take this on with the full expectation that they will mostly be doing research and gathering data which _might_ result in an acceptable patch, then I could co-mentor. With that expectation in mind, this project becomes closer to an REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) than a software engineering internship. Are we sure that fits into GSoC? Thanks, -Stolee
