The FreeBSD Project is pleased to announce its participation in the Google Summer of Code program designed to introduce students to open source software development. The FreeBSD Project received over 120 applications, amongst which 14 projects have been selected for funding. Unfortunately, due to the limited number of spots available, we were unable to fund many first rate applications. However, we encourage students to work together with us all year round. The FreeBSD Project is always willing to help students learn more about operating system development through our normal community mailing lists and development forums. Contributing to an open source software project is a valuable component of a computer science education and great preparation for a career in software development. More information about the student projects is available from the FreeBSD Summer of Code Wiki here : http://wikitest.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode2006 The Wiki will soon be updated with information about downloading the work in progress with CVSup. We'd like to close by thanking Google for their generosity and congratulating the 14 talented students below. - The FreeBSD Summer of Code Mentors -- Student: Spencer Whitman Summary: K - The Kernel meta-language Mentor: Poul-Henning Kamp <phk@FreeBSD.org> Student: Shteryana Sotirova Shopova Summary: Integrated SNMP monitoring Mentor: Bjoern Alexander Zeeb <bz@FreeBSD.org> Student: Clement Lecigne Summary: IPv6 stack vulnerabilities Mentor: George Neville-Neil <gnn@FreeBSD.org> Student: Roman Divacky Summary: Linux emulator Mentor: Alexander Leidinger <netchild@FreeBSD.org> Student: ADAM David Alan Martin Summary: AutoFS on FreeBSD 6 Mentor: Benno Rice <benno@FreeBSD.org> Student: Gabor Kovesdan Summary: Improving FreeBSD Ports Collection Mentor: Erwin Lansing <erwin@FreeBSD.org> Student: Ryan Beasley Summary: Syncing with the 4Front Technologies OSS v4 API Mentor: Ariff Abdullah <ariff@FreeBSD.org> Student: Paolo Pisati Summary: Study, analyze and improve the interrupt handling infrastructure in FreeBSD Mentor: John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> Student: Yuan, Jue Summary: Integrate Xen Support to FreeBSD Mentor: Kip Macy <kmacy@FreeBSD.org> Student: Christopher Jones Summary: Jail Resource Limits etc Mentor: Kip Macy <kmacy@FreeBSD.org> Student: Michael Bushkov Summary: Nss-LDAP importing and nsswitch subsystem improvement Mentor: Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume@FreeBSD.org> Student: Markus Boelter Summary: Bundled PXE Installer Mentor: Paul Saab <ps@FreeBSD.org> Student: Dongmei Liu Summary: Provide a set of default SeBSD policy for many common network services on FreeBSD 6.0, develop a policy analyse tool and a policy configure tools for SeBSD Mentor: Mike Silbersack <silby@FreeBSD.org> Student: Ivan Voras Summary: FreeBSD GEOM Storage Virtualisation Layer (gvirstor) Mentor: Pawel Jakub Dawidek <pjd@FreeBSD.org>
