they don't want.
Right, there must be clear indication that they are willing to accept
the work when it's done.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but I didn't mean to say that this
version should work on both python 2.x and python 3.x. Ideally, there
would be a PIL distribution for 2.x only and another one for 3.x only.
I don't know what Fredrik thinks, but I would not consider this ideal.
Ideally, there

That makes it a much better candidate for GHOP that SoC, which requires
projects with a little more meat on them.
Yes it does.

While working on the core is admirable, I think gsoc would provide an
opportunity to port important Python libraries to 3.x. It's important
to remember that doing ports helps the core immensely by uncovering
2to3 and py3k bugs.
