Google is offering students summer stipends to contribute to open source projects! To qualify for a stipend, you have to submit a proposal by June 24th, and the proposal has to be approved. See http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html
It would be cool if the Wine project put together a list of suggested projects for students to work on. It would be like http://www.winehq.org/site/contributing#devel but perhaps with a bit more guidance, and oriented around things the students can finish (and get past Alexandre!) by September 1st.
