Oh, its ok. I like the GSoC idea. I just don't think I'm GSoC material, I'm
hardware type, even if I will be a uni student this year going forward -
"If it draws blood, its hardware" as the old maxim goes.

The Parallella board is US$99, a far more modest investment in hardware
than a GizmoBoard as I had previously suggested, and packs more power for
the price, in terms of coding value. Whether it could be accepted as a
coding project of the type for GSoC, a mentor for it found, and other
logistical concerns are a issue for the GSoC organisers, but I suppose,
could it happen?

An abstract topic for the time being.
