In my opinion, these two particular points are only relevant for huge and intrusive projects like the Whiteboard (which as I recall, was started as part of GSoC 2010 and continued in the same program in 2011), or projects outside our general area of expertise (UMC Editor, which fortunately continues to be maintained by timotei). Of course, it's hard to give an opinion on whether these concerns apply or not for a particular case without a preliminary projects proposal to work with. -- Regards Ignacio Riquelme Morelle <shadowmaster>
