GSoC gives a certain degree of freedom for each organization and the
"rules" aren't general to all projects.

I'm not used to boost GSoC "rules". I thought that this was a valid
proposal, because the "Ideas/GSoC" page on the boost wiki mentioned the
"Protocol implementations for Boost.Asio" item. I didn't noticed such
warnings on the other pages (submission template, hints) also.

Now that you mentioned such need to have a proposed mentor earlier than
I expected, I became a little more worried.

If it's not a problem for you, I'd like to have your help in whittle my
proposal.

I just want to finish the descriptions/designs of a usable core set of
components before the decision of a timeline and deliverables. Do you
think it's a good idea?
