Hi Scott,
Albert raises a great point, your planning is great, but nothing beats
writing to code to see what works. Personally i find adopting an agile
approach really helps achieve tangible results quickly and also helps you
to get a feel for the code your writing, from a users perspective <----
this is key.
When you build a house, there's no point selecting your door knobs or
curtains until the foundations are laid and the walls are built.
If its possible, and you want to get the most out of this GsoC experience,
I encourage you to break your project into small "releasable" iterations,
release early and release often is the mantra - this way we can all play
with the features you create and provide you valuable feedback early in the
project, to help guide the feature into a really great product people enjoy
using.
all the best
Keith
