Hi Benedict, I think that we could definitely do something like this, but I guess we would have to provide manageable units of functionality. But I think it might be a challenge to get young people to choose working on industrial protocols if they can work on the next new JavaSript framework ;-)
But still I think we should give it a go. Unfortunately, I don’t have an Idea of how big/small such a unit of work should be. And I guess we would have to put it down in words somehow. Anyone here ever done such GSoC mentoring?

As far as I know it’s not to hard to participate as Apache project. I think this is a good way to get more people from diverse backgrounds on board. The organization registration for GSoC 2018 starts on January 4th, 2018. I think we should really be part of this, since there is a lot of work to do in PLC4X. WDYT?
