We will definitely apply to be a GSoC mentoring org and we are likely to get
accepted (we have been in the last 2 years; there is no reason why we won't
get accepted this year).
We do not have a project list yet. We are starting to brainstorm. It is entirely
OK for a student to propose a project idea. Once we know that Xen has been
accepted as a mentoring organisation we will form a committee to select the most
promising project ideas. We will be much more careful with our projects this
year: some of the projects last year were too ambitious for students.
Watch the blog and mailing list. You may get a better feeling of what is
interesting (assuming you want to propose a project yourselves). Also of course
if we know a student and know that he/she can deliver the project, you have an
advanyage over somebody we never heard of.
Hope this helped
Lars

There will most likely be some... Or at least Xen.org will probably submit some
project, then it all depends on them being approved. :-)

This is always something nice to hear. :-)

Ok then, I think you can keep monitoring GSoC Website and also this mailing
list, as I think updates will be announced here when they become available.
