Google Summer of Code: We're applying.

[Ori Bernstein <ori@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey,

Google Summer of Code is open, and it can't hurt to submit.

	https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/

Gsoc pays students to poke around in open source code. It's open to
students of all types who are older than 18 -- high school through
grad school.

I've already signed us up as an org. We have until Jan 23 to
satisfy the beaurocracy, and convince them of our value.

What I need from you:

Project ideas:

    GSOC wants us to have a good list of 'shovel-ready' ideas
    for students. This seems to be the main criterion for getting
    accepted.

    If you have cool ideas, projects that you wish would happen
    but don't have time to do, or things that you think would
    be really helpful, please propose them!

Mentors:

    We've got some people available for mentoring, but more mentors
    are better. If you've got strong feelings about how a project idea
    should be done, speak up and volunteer as a mentor.

Applicants:

    Well, someone needs to do the work. We'll know if we get accepted
    as an organization by Feb 12th. If we do get accepted, we'll want
    applicants.
