We certainly try to! I see that this is your first post (at least with this identity) to the Qubes lists.

Glad to hear it! :) As those projects' suggested mentor, I should note that these are currently listed as two separate projects with distinct workloads and skill-sets, implying that they might be done individually by separate students. It may indeed be reasonable to take on both if you feel you can do it (much can be accomplished in a summer). However, if combining them is something you want to do, I suggest you first make a case for why and how.

I have personally found ag [1] and ctags to be indispensable tools for "source spelunking". I've also found various tracing tools (the standard strace, ltrace, etc., but also [2] and their maintained brothers [3]) to be quite helpful for quickly getting an initial grasp of where to look. Tracing things with sh -x and/or a python debugger is also quite handy.
