This year we are again participating in [Google Summer of Code](http://socghop.appspot.com)
under the [GNU umbrella](http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/org/show/google/gsoc2010/gnuproject).
-Take a look at our [[project_ideas]] list.
-If you are a student and want to apply for one of these tasks,
-please mind the distinct [[student_application_form]] for the Hurd.
-Note that there are also two [Hurd-related ideas for X.Org](http://wiki.x.org/wiki/Hurd_Porting),
-for which students should apply to [X.Org](http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/org/home/google/gsoc2010/xorg) as a mentoring organization;
-and the [[project_ideas/debian_installer]] task
-most likely will be handled by the [Debian organisation](http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/org/home/google/gsoc2010/debian).

-If you can't participate as a GSoC student,
+ * *[[Jeremie Koenig|jkoenig]]*, mentored by *[[Samuel
+ Thibault|samuelthibault]]*, is working on adapting the Debian Installer to
+ [produce working Debian GNU/Hurd installation
+ images](http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/student_project/show/google/gsoc2010/debian/t127230758239)
+ so we can easily offer up to date disc-sets.
+ ([Details](http://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2010/HurdDebianInstaller/JeremieKoenig).)
+
+ * *[[Emilio Pozuelo Monfort|pochu]]*, mentored by *Carl Fredrik Hammar* (who
+ was a GSoC student in 2007), is working on a task that may be perceived as
+ less exciting from the outside, but yet is extremely valuable: [fixing
+ compatibility problems exposed by projects'
+ testsuites](http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/student_project/show/google/gsoc2010/gnuproject/t127230759396).

+ * *[[Karim Allah Ahmed|kam]]*, mentored by *Sergio López*, is working on
+ [tuning the VM Subsystem in
+ GNU/Hurd](http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/student_project/show/google/gsoc2010/gnuproject/t127230759587)
+ to bring the virtual memory management in Hurd/Mach up to date.
+ ([[Details|community/gsoc/project_ideas/vm_tuning]].)
+
+We always ask students that want to apply for a task (in the course of the
+Google Summer of Code) to mind our distinct [[student_application_form]].
+
+Apart from our own [[project_ideas]], there are also two [Hurd-related ideas
+for X.Org](http://wiki.x.org/wiki/Hurd_Porting).
+
+As the Google Summer of Code 2010 has already started, you can no longer
+participate as a GSoC student. However,
working on one of these projects is still a good opportunity to get started with Hurd development.
Please read up about [[contributing]] in general;
and feel free to ask any questions you might have at one of our [[regular_IRC_meetings|IRC#regular_meetings]].
