If QEMU is accepted there will be funding for students to work on 12-week full-time open source projects remotely from May to August 2016. QEMU provides a mentor for each student who gives advice and evaluates their progress. If you have a project idea, especially if you are a regular contributor to QEMU and are willing to mentor this summer, please go to this wiki page and fill out the project idea template: http://qemu-project.org/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016 The project ideas list is part of the application so that QEMU can participate in GSoC.

Hey Stefan, so as we spoke earlier in person, I think it's time for libvirt to try and apply as a separate organization. I went ahead and created similar GSoC ideas page for libvirt: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016 My question is, is qemu willing to back libvirt in case we don't get selected and if so, should we duplicate the idea list into qemu wiki too?

Great!

I'm worried that this would look like orgs trying to game the system. Are there project ideas that involve both QEMU and libvirt changes? For those I think it's fair to have them in both org's lists. Anything that is purely QEMU or libvirt shouldn't be duplicated. Stefan

You're right. Maybe we should not do it after all.

So far none. But I have adjusted both our wikis to note that. Michal

By the way, you are welcome to put the QEMU org as a reference on the application form for libvirt. It boosts your chance slightly as a new org to have another org vouch for you. Stefan
