Hi Karimi,

Apologies, but I was out of email contact for a few days.

Also due to some recent events at work (unexpected new commitments) it 
seems I simply won't be able to definitely commit the time required for 
being a mentor this year when GScC actually starts. I will have to 
modify the project page to reflect this, this is unfortunate as I would 
really have liked to get this work done on the project.

If you can find someone else who could act as the main mentor I could 
act as backup, but I don't think anyone else will have the same interest 
in the project as me. Most of the time I am likely to be able to provide 
the level of support needed, but if things go wrong or there are 
problems I can no longer say I will definitely be available for help 
during the entire project.

Apologies for this,

Richard
