[Rahul Thakoor]

Dear Radka,

Thank you for the prompt and detailed response.

What is the number of hours/week we expected to work on this project? I
will then be able to decide if I can commit to the program based on my
schedule.

I am will be available to work full-time during weekends also, will that be
taken into consideration?

Thank you,
Kind Regards,
Rahul Thakoor

The same as any other. It's an easy project for me, I can't and very
individual for the students. You need to dedicate as much as you need to
succeed.

For reference:

How much time does GSoC participation take?

You are expected to spend around 30+ hours a week working on your project during
the 3 month coding period. If you already have an internship, another summer
job, or plan to be gone on vacation for more than a week during that time, GSoC
is not the right program for you this year,

So can you commit to 30+ hours per week in addition to what you are already
committed to?
