It's an interesting problem to have.
If neither of you chooses to voluntarily back down, the obvious
resolution is for the mentors to vote on the better proposal. If we
do that early enough during the student application period, there
might still be time for the person whose proposal wasn't chosen to
submit a proposal for an alternative project. As I see it, that
means:
- I would tend to favor a proposal submitted on the first day (beginning March 20 16:00 UTC), if only one is.
- I would push for very early voting by the PostgreSQL mentors.
