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
