Looking at our Summer of Code ideas page, I realized it was getting dense and unruly, so I and Maarten moved it off to the side and did a simpler one; see http://wiki.winehq.org/SummerOfCode
The DirectX stuff in particular could use some more detail; could the knowledgeable people flesh it out?
Also each idea should probably have a sponsor the students could turn to for ideas. I've put a few obvious ones in, but it'd be nice if each one was claimed.
Thanks, Dan

Unfortunately I am unable to sponsor my own idea (Case-insensitive FUSE), since I'm not too involved with Wine's C code.
Could someone else please volunteer to mentor the project if it gets accepted by Google?
Thanks, Scott Ritchie

If anyone takes this up, we might see about expanding it to include better support for FUSE iso mounted filesystems. Currently when you use fuse to mount an iso image, you have to manually configure a fake drive letter. It would be nice if we could query the loaded fuse module for a listing of mounted iso images and automatically create fake cdrom devices.
I'm planning on applying for the FUSE project. I guess there are a lot of possibilities on this area. I have some experience on implementing FUSE filesystems with python and C. I'll post some ideas in a couple of days.
