I haven't found anything regarding this in the archives, so I'd like to
start discussion about Fedora Core's participation in the Google Summer
of Code.

Google has announced on their page here:

http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html

that Fedora Core is participating, but I couldn't find anymore
information.  While I'm a student, I know that not many of the
developers or lurkers may be active students, though.

Is any discussion taking place about it ?  Maybe the first step is to
publicize what ideas Fedora Core might like worked on, and what
languages they prefer.  Following some of the ideas linked for many
other projects sounds like a good starting point.

I'm not sure what projects there could be, but maybe we should chip in
ideas ?  Completely reworking and adding to system-config-* might be a
nice one, and it's PyGTK so it would be relatively platform-agnostic
(anybody could work on that).

I don't know about others.

If others could start giving ideas or filling in information about it,
maybe we could make a page or wiki about it where further discussion
could take place in more public view (something Google could link to).

Thanks !

Em
