It is not relevant for this year's GSoC...
2009-03-27Drop unsuitable exercise suggestions from some GSoC ideasantrik
These exercises wouldn't result in a useful patch, and thus are not appropriate in view of our patch requirement...

2009-03-13community/gsoc/project_ideas/apt_ftpfs: Initial version from IRC discussion.Thomas Schwinge
Add missing file.
2009-03-12Package manager GSoC task: Change exercise suggestionantrik
The provious exercise was very nice and relevant, but probably too involved :-(
2009-03-12secure chroot GSoC task: Change exercise suggestionantrik
2009-03-12secure chroot GSoC task: Add links to ideas/discussionsantrik
2009-03-12secure chroot GSoC task: Fix typoantrik
2009-03-12Lexical .. GSoC task: Drop note on task being easyantrik
While this task certainly doesn't require much code to be written, I don't think it's actually easy for a newcomer...
2009-03-12tmpfs GSoC task: Update exerciseantrik
2009-03-12tmpfs GSoC task: Fix typosantrik
2009-03-12xmlfs GSoC task: Update exerciseantrik
Don't insist on the change being related to the existing xmlfs -- the skills required for doing minor changes on it aren't really any different from other translators.
2009-03-12xmlfs GSoC task: Stress requirement for good XML knowledgeantrik
2009-03-12xmlfs GSoC task: Mention XQueryantrik
2009-03-12Gnumach cleanup GSoC task: Reword exercise suggestionantrik
2009-03-12Gnumach cleanup GSoC task: Reworded section on things to doantrik
More explicitely state that the student should look at the code to find stuff to fix -- mention possible things only as examples.
2009-03-12mtab GSoC task: Changed exercise suggestionantrik
The previous suggestion would not produce a useful patch -- and it was probably too involved anyways...
2009-03-12mtab GSoC task: fix typosantrik
2009-03-12I/O tuning GSoC task: Update exercise suggestionantrik
2009-03-12Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Update exercise suggestionantrik
2009-03-12Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Add Barry as possible mentorantrik
2009-03-12Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Merge notes about previous workantrik
Barry's work is available in the savannah task, so no need to mention it explicitely.
2009-03-12Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Drop cthreads wrapper optionantrik
As the native conversion is mostly done, such a wrapper probably wouldn't save any work now.
2009-03-12Pthread conversion GSoC task: Mention libfuse problemantrik
2009-03-12Diskfs locking GSoC task: Change exerciseantrik
The result of the previous exercise probably couldn't be considered a useful patch -- not suitable for going into mainline at least.
2009-03-12Diskfs locking GSoC task: Add note about code reviewantrik
2009-03-12NFS GSoC task: Update exercise suggestionantrik
Explicitely mention that the exercise might not be suitable for producing a patch, and it might be necessary to find an alternative task.

2009-03-12NFS GSoC task: Mention that locking is problematic in generalantrik
2009-03-10Network stack GSoC task: Additional exercise suggestionantrik
2009-03-10Network stack GSoC task: Monolitic implementation sufficient for the beginnigantrik
A modular implementation is not realistic in the GSoC timeframe; and starting with a monolithic one probably makes sense from an engineering standpoint anyways. Also, it's probably better than what we have now...

2009-03-10Server overriding GSoC task: Update "last year"...antrik
2009-03-10Server overriding GSoC task: Socket server overriding patch as exampleantrik
