Hi Pavel,

My task as a lecturer is to teach students to work with an existing software, to make changes to it and to integrate with it. Students can learn algorithms, patterns and approaches when they attend other courses. It is not a target to teach students to write their own new software.

My initial mixed reaction was mainly because I was a bit taken aback by your statement "I will not require payment for my students" (which sounded, to me at least, like you were in position to require it!). So let's get over this communication issue.


In my opinion opensource projects are good for students because they have their communities that can help student to dive into the project.


Indeed. So let's be open to this initiative and see how it works out. I suggest that once you selected a student, (s)he could send an introduction mail to Trac-dev and from that point, one of us could volunteer to mentor him or her.
We could then follow some of the guidelines set by the GSoC:
