Yeah, that was my point. I don't know what Stefan is saying off list, but clearly it's too little, too late. It's really bad form to have the student participating in the slot request process on a public list, don't you think? Note I don't blame Fuqiao. Although I don't know his work in detail, he seems to be precisely the kind of student that GSoC wants to support, engaged in Emacs development and likely to continue. But that Emacs is so disorganized as a GSoC subproject that he could actually come to the point of posting such a thing speaks volumes about Emacs (as a GSoC subproject).
