As I'm on To: line. (Though I have no special status other than
being last poster), to ensure you get some reply, My 2c. :
No can stop anyone working; Be a shame though if 2 people work &
one's effort was not used. I suppose as SoC deadline was yesterday
it'll take a while for google to publish their sponsoring list.
If 2 people develope same thing: whose code will be commited will
I suppose be decided on which arrives first &/or seems best code,
hopefully independent of status of author eg student V. independent.
End of non authoritative 2 cents worth :-)
