Thread:Talk:Mentorship programs/Possible projects/Reminder to scope small :-)

I suggest we scope the featured code-related ideas at about 6 weeks of coding work to ensure we dedicate enough time (out of the 3-month period) to bugfixing and code review. Past proposals often allotted either no time or about 2 weeks for merging with trunk, pre-deploy code review, and integration. That's not enough. If skilled developer thinks that a project might take about 2 weeks for a skilled developer to code, then that's a good sign, in my opinion. Students run into lots of problems, and your 2-week project is someone else's whole summer or winter.

Just a reminder. :-)
