IIRC, even though Chico was quite eager to submit patches and
bugreports, the quality of his work caused concern amongst at least
some of the mentors.

I really think we should be focusing only on students that we are
confident with, as opposed to selecting someone based on the area of
their project.

Doing this should help HCD'09 to be successful, especially in terms of
providing a working product to the community, who will be paying for
it.
