I am 100% certain that Google will be more than happy to accept a Python-based project and that they won't favor a Go project over a Python one. That said, I don't think we need to get into a discussion about which project would be best- I'd be happy to have them both listed on the Ideas page (perhaps independently would be best though) provided there are mentors for each. Also, remember, these are just our ideas- students are welcome to pick which they're interested in or to choose their own. When we get to the point of evaluating the student proposals, it will be a discussion among the GSoC admins and the individuals who have signed up to be mentors. Thanks! Stephen
