The FreeBSD Project was again accepted as a mentoring organization for the
Google Summer of Code.  The student application period will begin next week
so if you have any ideas for great student projects, please send them to
soc-admins@FreeBSD.org or post them here for discussion.  A good student
project has a well defined purpose, some key FreeBSD developers that could
be identified as potential mentors, and is feasible for a student to
complete in a few months time.  The existing ideas list is available here :

http://www.freebsd.org/projects/ideas/

If you can suggest something (getting specific parts of valgrind working on
FreeBSD?) then please provide information in the form of the other projects
listed on the page as far as difficulty level, requirements, etc..

Thanks,

        - Murray
