To have it on the ideas list we don't need a GSoC mentor... basically =20
I say that I think that the DTraceToolkit stuff should stay on the =20
ideas list in some form (doesn't matter to me if it is marked up fro =20
the GSoC or not).

That aside, as I already added a lot of dtrace probes in my =20
linuxulator user branch (slowed down a little bit ATM because of other =20
high priority tasks), I feel confident to mentor some DTrace probes =20
related GSoC project (if there's some interest out there that this =20
should be done), so the mentor part should not be a showstopper.

Bye,
Alexander.
