Hello Prince, thanks for reaching out, and thanks for all the contributions over the last weeks.
Personally, I would focus on one project, you can always implement another method if there is time left at the end, but since the models behind both ideas a somewhat different it makes sense to focus on a single one. Also, I think I said this before, but testing takes time, sometimes more time than the actual method implementation. Besides, documentation and writing a tutorial shouldn't be underestimated as well. That said I think each project is interesting and definitely enough work for a GSoC project. Thanks, Marcus > On 8.
