Thanks, Martin. That's a great idea; every project should list their needs and think of them in terms of work interns can do. We should also start looking for experienced mentors now who can take on 1-3 projects and give the interns serious feedback.<br>

Last year OLPC mentored a couple of GSoC projects - as documented at<br>
<a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/wiki/OLPC_Google_Summer_of_Code" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/wiki/OLPC_Google_Summer_of_Code</a> - I think we<br>
could have a lot more projects. This year, GSoC is starting early, so<br>
we should be getting in motion asap.<br>

>From the School Server side of things, there's a lot to do, and many<br>
of those tasks can be broken down in small steps that can be tackled<br>
by a GSoC student. I would like to setup a few tasks there for OLPC,<br>
and I am prepared to mentor a few well-picked students. I have<br>
mentored students for the Moodle project last year, and that had<br>
excellent results.<br>
<br>
The moodle team is already on the move preparing things for their GSoC<br>
2008, that's how I caught wind of the early start ;-)<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
