Steve, I will take the blame for any misunderstanding in this area.
The GSoC calendar is based on the assumption that the students will have completed their spring academic work prior to the serious coding phase. Since conditions in Greece have delayed George's academic year, his "spring" final exams will now occur during the summer. I suggested that, in order to meet his mid-term goals in a timely fashion, he might expend some extra hours now, hopefully be ready to start coding a little early, and then be able to take a planned period of reduced effort during his finals. I am not, in any manner, suggesting that he skip any steps in the process.
