Talk:Summer Coding 2010 proposal - Kronikarz

General Feedback

Please work on the following : [1] Mentor's comments and, a non-mentor community member feedback, [2] a bit more detail about your timeline, currently it is much too broad and, does not include parts where you investigate any dependencies/blockers or, factor in testing and user-feedback

Detailed timeline

After the primary negotiation and work sharing it the detailed timeline will be developed. As now it is not clear, what each of students will do, and also each of them can meet complexities. And I also would like to hear students opinions on the detailed timeline and this discussion is in process now.
