Thanks.\n\nIt is helpful that Shashank announced early their intention to work\non this. Especially during the busy preparation season for\nmentoring programs, it is a good practice to allow other candidates\navoid working on the same microproject.\n\nIt is not strictly necessary to prevent multiple candidates from\nworking on essentially the same microproject, provided they do so\nindependently. The \"graduation\" criterion for a microproject is\nnot whether a finalized patch lands in my tree. It is more about\nhelping candidate mentees get used to the process of making it\nhappen.\n\nEnjoy the journey.\n\n"}]}
