Another issue of this program is that me, as an incoming graduate
in the U.S., are prohibited to "work" in my first school year.
(that law doesn't affect GSoC since summer is considered as the
second school year). I'm not sure whether contributing to
open-source projects is considered as "work" here. There are some
legal issues related. I'm looking forward to some clarifications
like
(https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/faq#is_gsoc_considered_an_internship_a_job_or_any_form_of_employment) stating that this program is an "employment" or not.
