Hey, open source graphics enthusiasts,
Yesterday, Google announced that the X.Org foundation is an accepted organization for the GSoC 2014!
If you are a potential mentor and would have a project you would like a student to work on, you can propose a project in the summer of code ideas wiki page[1]. Right now, we have 16 projects ideas, half of them being related to Xpra.
If you are a student and are interested in a project covered by the X.Org Foundation (DRI, mesa, X-Server, Wayland and 2D/3D/video accel), you can send your project proposal to Google[2]. Bonus points if you find a mentor yourself. You can also have a look at the summer of code ideas wiki page[1] for interesting projects.
Looking forward to seeing which projects will happen for this 2014 edition!
