[summerofcode] project ideas apart from psf

[Rahul Garg]

Hi.
I have submitted a project idea related to Idle thats not in the list
of ideas proposed by the PSF but is highly related to development of
python tools. Is it ok to propose our own ideas and not use one of the
PSF ones?

Also i will be very happy to work on the idea even if i am not
selected for the Google program.  In such a case can psf arrange for
some mentor for me even if i am not selected for the program?

sincerely,
Rahul Garg
