[core-workflow] bugs.python.org-related GSoC project

[Carol Willing]

Hello Ezio and others,

Sorry about the blank message.

I'm happy to help informally for GSOC if needed. Rachel would be great 
as a supporting mentor (or whatever the correct wording is).

Thoughts on projects and focus are in line.

Thanks, Ezio, for mentoring :-)

Carol

This looks like a good student project with valuable experience for the 
user.
