[Qgis-developer] GSoC deadline

I think it depends on the student-mentor willingness to do it. If the
student is quite enthusiastic and the mentor is actively helping him I
think it is not a problem to have another partial position.

Last year, my brother (student) and I (mentor) were in a similar
situation for gvSIG and had no big issues with this.

At some point it is necessary to elaborate a planning. I think that's
the critical point to know if one is able to meet the requirements.

Regards.
