The Project Policies

The nature of the work in GCC projects is somewhat nebulous and will require a lot of initiative and flexibility apart from advanced applications of the basic skill set. In the absence of a sustained genuine interest and motivation, no amount of work will help. On the other hand the C compiler project is much more structured with concrete sub-goals, well defined strategies of work, and objective assessments. Since GCC project has higher risks, depending upon how you perform, the rewards could be higher, and so could be the losses in your grade!
