I think you already found the FreeBSD wiki pages about the Summer of Code, = but if you did not, here they are: https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode And in particular you are probably interested now in https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCodeStudentChecklist I read you are suggested to write to the hackers mailing list as you are do= ing. However, this mailing is list not much used, not as much as others and as irc at lea= st; of course I hope potential mentors are subscribed, but you are more likely to receive quick = response if you also join irc. I remember a few days ago someone talking about the Summer of Cod= e, maybe it was you (if it was you, I found cool your idea and I would probably bene= fit from its realization: definitely hope you found your mentor!): try again and make it clear that y= ou are in search for a mentor. We are always busy doing plenty of things, we might read quickly, see the c= ool idea, but forget to notice about the mentorship need. Or, even worse, many = of us use an irc bouncer: thus we go to sleep or at work receiving everything, but when we c= ome back at irc we just look at things where we were mentioned. Since you do not know t= he name of your future mentor, you cannot mention him and he would not see your reques= t. Thus, do not just say "I am searching for a mentor", say "do you know who c= ould like to become my mentor"? And someone will answer "maybe x". And x wil be mentioned and see = it when he comes back on irc. It could also help you to get a copy of the source (see https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/makeworld.html ), enter into the direc= tory that you would most probably work with (for example, if you will work on virtual memory, s= ys/vm) then look to the last people that worked in there with a "svn log -l5": they know the= part of the source you want to work on, then they have the technical knowledge needed for being yo= ur mentor. Then you can try to contact them on irc or by e-mail. For this last part you could find useful the following: https://wiki.freebsd.org/IRC/Nicknames https://people.freebsd.org/homepage.html https://www.freebsd.org/administration.html I wish you to find your mentor.
