Yes, like in a text. My question about fuzzy and socket was for that
purpose. I understand that my form was not valid. :-)

OK, thanks on Your feedback. I have three more questions.
When someone start developing library, is he works 6 hours per day or it is
less/more time?
Can I make plan for six months and after Google Summer of Code 2008 continue
to work on that library?
Can I send two applications, because if you decide that it's too much job
for me I can lose chances to work on any project for GSOC 2008.(I am also
interested in developing project about Safe integer project).
