I personally doubt a student can do the brainstorming part, from a GSoC point of view. Except if you find a student who is well aware of the idea on what we want! For GSoC we need: - dedicated mentor(s) - precised instructions on what to code In my opinion, we can put this as GSoC if we have another mentor to help Sebastian (as for me, I won't be available in July and August so I don't think I can be very helpful in mentoring, before that I'll help as much as I can) and if we define the lib at the KDE-Edu meeting (maybe with the help of teachers or we could try to make a survey or something else in order to get feedback). It is doable and it is an excellent idea, we only need to have it ready at the beginning of GSoC!
