Greetings Abhishek!  Open source is a fantastic way to become involved and 
learn about software development in general, but also just a very productive 
hobby.  I hear over and over from students that continued to work on open 
source after GSoC ended, how a company hired them because of their passion for 
coding and commitment to an open source community.  :)

You're really the only one that can answer that question.  If they sound like 
they're interesting projects to you, then they're certainly viable projects.  
The tree walker is certainly "harder" than code reduction, but I have no basis 
to evaluate whether your "relatively new" software development experience is 
sufficient.  I suggest familiarizing  yourself with the source code references 
and see if you can understand the code.

You could, but I wouldn't recommend it.  I'd recommend submitting them as two 
separate proposals where you list one as your preferred primary.  The primary 
should be a project that truly interests you the most.

Cheers!
Sean
