I agree. At one time, Vipul (sp?) approached the list with the desire to do something, and I would support adding that under the fedora project umbrella, assuming that we have a mentor in place for his project - I've forgotten what it was, although I can dig it up in the gluster-user archives. I'd be interested in hearing about other projects that should be added. -JM ----- Original Message -----> On 03/12/2014 06:44 PM, Kaushal M wrote: > > We haven't had any noise regarding GSOC this year in the Gluster > > community and haven't done anything regarding it so far (AFAIK). > > > > The student registration for GSOC-2014 is closing on 21st March [1], > > so we still have a little over 1 week to do something. > > > > Ideally, with Gluster progressing from a project to an organization > > with multiple projects, we'd have liked to participate as our own > > organization this time, but it isn't possible.

These projects, do they have to be on-going ideas/features, or could them be a (solid) feature request ? (Yes, the question is very basic, but I am new here. Sorry.)
