 * Summer of Code applications period started
For the fourth consecutive time in a row, the NetBSD Project is proud to

be one of the mentoring organizations in Google's Summer of Code

program.  The student applications period has started, and we would like

to encourage interested students to submit their applications to

participate and help make NetBSD even better!
Working with our mentoring NetBSD developers on a complex project offers

an exciting opportunity for all students to not only get paid to gain

valuable software engineering experience, to network with a large

community of professionals or to lay the foundation for future research,

but it's also a fun way to contribute to and even become part of a large

Open Source project.
A number of concrete suggestions for Summer of Code projects within

NetBSD is available at
  http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/soc-projects.html
All projects there are rated with an estimated level of difficulty and

appropriate contacts.  We encourage all students to discuss their

proposal prior to submission on our public mailing lists, with the

primary contact listed on that page or on #netbsd-code on IRC.
Note that we also invite students to submit proposals for projects that

are not explicitly listed on that page.
Some of the questions to which we would like to see the answers in your

application are listed at
  http://www.netbsd.org/contrib/soc-application.html
Good luck to all students - we are looking forward to working with you

this summer!
