Hi there,
GSoC 2011 has been announced[1]. As we were pretty successful last year,
I think we should participate again. I've already created a wiki page:
http://wiki.qemu.org/Google_Summer_of_Code_2011
We should now populate it with projects and people willing to be mentors
should say so (or just add a project)[2].
Also, I'd like to do something different this year, I'd like to invite
libvirt people to join. There are two ways of doing this:
1. They join in the program as a regular mentoring organization, or
2. They join with QEMU
The second option means that libvirt can suggest and run its own projects
(preferably with QEMU relevance), but from a GSoC perspective, the project
will be part of the QEMU org.
Keep in mind that every full org gets a free trip to the west coast for 2 people ;). So
splitting up means we could almost do a mini-summit at the google campus on google's
expenses ;).
Please coordinate that with Carol. Apparently traction for GSOC is declining (according to
last year's summit). So there might be plenty of available slots this year. So I'd
say sign up separately for now and if you don't get accepted, just join forces with
us!
