Hi,

Is FreeBSD restricting  non-students from not  taking up any project that is
'suitable for summer of code'?
For eg.
I was planning to take up the 'super tunnel daemon' project some time back.
I had done some initial work but now i find that it has also been marked as
'Suitable for summer of code'. I am no longer a student. I am working
currently at a firm. So i dont think that i will be eligible for the summer
of code. Can i still take up the project or am i forced to take up those
that are not marked as 'suitable for summer of code'?
Also, if someone has taken a summer of code project can no-one else take it
up as a normal project to contribute to FreeBSD ?

Awaiting a reply,
Ajay.
