Thanks for your email! The GSoC page is here: https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode Now, mentors are still signing up. You can either choose one of the projects, or you can propose your own project if you decide you wish to try for something else. Good luck! -a On 12 March 2014 09:23, Shonali Balakrishna wrote: > Hi all, > > I am Shonali Balakrishna from Bangalore, India.
