If you want to continue working on the existing decoder to make it
fit for svn then a possible qualification task would be to find
a bug in the decoder that causes a file to be incorrectly decoded
(this part is easy)

and then fix that bug (that is not so easy)

about mentors, i dont know ...

Many things microsoft did are stupid, but not doing something just because
microsoft did it is even more stupid. If everything ms did were stupid they
would be bankrupt already.
