Hi folks,
I've just sent our application for this year's Summer of Code. Could everyone please have another look at the proposed projects at http://wiki.winehq.org/SummerOfCode to see if all the proposals are still current. Feel free to discuss new project ideas on the mailing list as well.
Cheers, Kai

One more thing. Maarten doesn't have time to do this, so I would need someone as a backup admin to take over in case I'm hit by a bus or the like. I was acting as Maarten's backup last year, and I didn't have to do a thing. :) I'll also promise to be careful when crossing roads, it's just a safety measure to make sure I'm not the single point of failure.
Cheers, Kai

What kind of would be involved in being a backup admin? I could perhaps put myself forward for this - hopefully of course you won't be hit by any buses, though. ;-)

Well, basically you need to take over for the org admin if needed and
- at the start of the program, accept known developers as mentors and reject people you don't know - during the program, make sure that all the mentors are still active and organize a backup mentor if a mentor disappears (not happened to me before) - at the mid-term, chase all the mentors to turn in their mid-term evaluations - at the end of the program, chase all the mentors to turn in their final evaluations.
That's pretty much it. If you admin or mentor, you can't participate in GSoC as a student.
If you're interested, log into melange (http://socghop.appspot.com/), create a link_id and tell me that link_id.
Cheers, Kai
