Hey David,
good to hear from you!

How are you doing?
I think it would be worth it, trying to apply for gsoc.
Parley will have at most one project this year, since I'll be the only mentor.
As far as I know KDE will not get more students than the last years, so I 
cannot guarantee for anything, last year we had a lot of luck getting two 
students for parley.

If you apply, please include some mock-ups if you want to polish the practice.
I received another piece of artwork for flash card mode that looks good. I'll 
add it to svn.

Greetings,
Frederik
