We can't rely on people staying. The most important thing is that the  
code is easily maintainable after gsoc. It needs to fit in and be  
stuff we can maintain ourselves.

I appreciate that you have experience in java but we are written in C.  
You'd be better finding an organisation who's app is written in java.
