2009-03-12	GSoC ideas list: Additional hints regarding exercise task selection	antrik

2009-03-12	Package manager GSoC task: Change exercise suggestion	antrik
	The provious exercise was very nice and relevant, but probably too involved :-(
2009-03-12	secure chroot GSoC task: Change exercise suggestion	antrik

2009-03-12	secure chroot GSoC task: Add links to ideas/discussions	antrik

2009-03-12	secure chroot GSoC task: Fix typo	antrik

2009-03-12	Lexical .. GSoC task: Drop note on task being easy	antrik
	While this task certainly doesn't require much code to be written, I don't think it's actually easy for a newcomer...
2009-03-12	tmpfs GSoC task: Update exercise	antrik

2009-03-12	tmpfs GSoC task: Fix typos	antrik

2009-03-12	xmlfs GSoC task: Update exercise	antrik
	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.
2009-03-12	xmlfs GSoC task: Stress requirement for good XML knowledge	antrik

2009-03-12	xmlfs GSoC task: Mention XQuery	antrik

2009-03-12	Gnumach cleanup GSoC task: Reword exercise suggestion	antrik

2009-03-12	Gnumach cleanup GSoC task: Reworded section on things to do	antrik
	More explicitely state that the student should look at the code to find stuff to fix -- mention possible things only as examples.
2009-03-12	mtab GSoC task: Changed exercise suggestion	antrik
	The previous suggestion would not produce a useful patch -- and it was probably too involved anyways...
2009-03-12	GSoC student application form: Add note on application title	antrik

2009-03-12	mtab GSoC task: fix typos	antrik

2009-03-12	I/O tuning GSoC task: Update exercise suggestion	antrik

2009-03-12	Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Update exercise suggestion	antrik

2009-03-12	Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Add Barry as possible mentor	antrik

2009-03-12	Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Merge notes about previous work	antrik
	Barry's work is available in the savannah task, so no need to mention it explicitely.
2009-03-12	Pthreads conversion GSoC task: Drop cthreads wrapper option	antrik
	As the native conversion is mostly done, such a wrapper probably wouldn't save any work now.
2009-03-12	Pthread conversion GSoC task: Mention libfuse problem	antrik

2009-03-12	Diskfs locking GSoC task: Change exercise	antrik
	The result of the previous exercise probably couldn't be considered a useful patch -- not suitable for going into mainline at least.
2009-03-12	Diskfs locking GSoC task: Add note about code review	antrik

2009-03-12	NFS GSoC task: Update exercise suggestion	antrik
	Explicitely mention that the exercise might not be suitable for producing a patch, and it might be necessary to find an alternative task.
2009-03-12	NFS GSoC task: Refer to Madhusudan's discussion	antrik

2009-03-12	NFS GSoC task: Mention that locking is problematic in general	antrik

2009-03-10	Network stack GSoC task: Additional exercise suggestion	antrik

2009-03-10	Network stack GSoC task: Monolitic implementation sufficient for the beginnig	antrik
	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...
2009-03-10	Network stack GSoC task: Fix sentence	antrik

2009-03-10	Drop kernel instrumentation (dtrace) GSoC task	antrik
	The stuff Andrei worked on last year isn't quite ready yet, but leave it for now...
2009-03-10	Server overriding GSoC task: Update "last year"...	antrik

2009-03-10	Server overriding GSoC task: Socket server overriding patch as example	antrik
	Mention Zheng Da's socket overriding patch as an example of approach (1), intead of mentioning it in the "status" section.
2009-03-10	Server overriding GSoC task: Explicitely mention relation to virtualization task	antrik

2009-03-10	Glue code GSoC task: Rework exercise suggestion	antrik

2009-03-10	Glue code GSoC task: Reword statement about previous experience	antrik

2009-03-10	Glue code GSoC task: More explicitely suggest using ddekit	antrik

2009-03-10	Drop procfs GSoC task	antrik
	While the procfs produced in last year's GSoC is still very buggy, this probably doesn't justify another GSoC project.
2009-03-10	File locking GSoC task: Update exercise suggestion	antrik
	While the suggestion is certainly good as an exercise, it is probably not suitable for producing an actual patch quickly. Warn about this, and explicitely mention that finding a different task might be necessary.
2009-03-10	Drop namespace-based translator selection GSoC task	antrik
	Sergiu Ivanov is working on this.
2009-03-10	Virtualization GSoC task: Drop subhurds subtask	antrik
	Zheng Da is currently working on rootless subhurds etc.
2009-03-10	Language bindings GSoC task: Rewrote note on previous Perl work	antrik
	Explicitely mention that the previous work can serve as a reference only -- most likely we can't use it directly because of missing copyright assignment. Probably it also uses a suboptimal technical approach. (Haven't checked.)
2009-03-10	Language bindings GSoC task: Better starting point for Python bindings	antrik

2009-03-10	Partial revert: Too much deleted while updating Lisp status	antrik

2009-03-09	Mention cthread vs. pthread problem in language bindings GSoC task	antrik

2009-03-09	Language bindings GSoC task: Lisp implemented last year	antrik

2009-03-09	GSoC project ideas list: Inline each subpage individually	antrik
	This gives us better control -- in particular over the ordering. It will also allow easily disabling ideas without removing them alltogether, which I consider useful.
