 * Inviting students to NetBSD and Google's Summer of Code

Google is doing another round of their Summer of Code project, where the idea 
is to attract students to write code for Open Source projects during the 
summer, instead of having them flip burgers. For the fourth time, the NetBSD 
project has been selected as mentoring organization in the Summer of Code 
project!

Prospective students that are interested in pursuing projects for NetBSD are 
welcome to start thinking about what projects they'd like to do, and discuss 
things on our public mailing lists. We have lists of suggest GSoC projects and 
(harder!) general projects which can serve as inspiration:

        http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/soc-projects.html
        http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/projects.html

Also, please see our NetBSD Project Application/Proposal HowTo for information 
that we'd like to see answered in the eventual project proposals sent to 
Google:

        http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/soc-application.html

This information helps us to rank the project proposals we'll get, and to put 
your project on the best spot! If you have any questions, please contact 
NetBSD's team of Summer of Code administrators at
