Howdy,

Its that time of year again when Google Summer of Code is starting to  
kick off and the ASF is participating.  I've signed up as a mentor  
again this year, just in case we have some SpamAssassin projects in  
the mix, we didn't end up with any last year.

In the past its always worked best if we as devs proposed a set of  
projects that someone might want to pick up and work on.  So does  
anyone have any thing they would like to see done over the summer?

Also this year, before accepting anyone into the program they are  
going to need to show a real willingness to work with the community  
and speak up on the dev list, etc.  We might even request a small code  
patch to make sure they have the tools necessary to get the job done  
over the summer.

So, any projects old or new you'd like to see worked on?  We can talk  
about them in this thread and I'll spend a few minutes adding them to  
the ASF wide wiki page: http://wiki.apache.org/general/SummerOfCode2009
