Hi Cristina!  Thanks for sharing your proposal.  That's looking good.  I like the specific development directions you've outlined including your rationale.

The only technical concern I immediately see is that there's an implicit risk assumed.  Namely the use of the GOBLIN library is an unknown quantity since we've not worked with it before.  There should be some evaluation time allocated and a contingency plan in place should it not work out for whatever reason.

Given your other known commitments, they are a concern given the six-or-more weeks of cumulative impact but we can go over a specific plan for accommodating your schedule over the upcoming week.

Great!  That will be highly useful for evaluating your proposal given the complexity of the task.

Cheers!
