Sounds like a good idea (even if we not go for GSoC with the challenge). I'll think about it. I also read again through http://genode.org/about/challenges and http://genode.org/about/road-map. For me, one major goal appropriate to tackle during the summer is block-device encryption and I want to promote it hereby. To use Genode every day in Genode Labs it's crucial to protect the confidentiality of some information that's part of the Genode code base, e.g., emails and reports. There are several expansion stages imaginable to reach the goal and the basic building blocks (block-device interface, ATA/SATA driver for Qemu) are already in place. BTW some of the challenges on our agenda (including iwlagn) depend on the availability of test hardware. What do you think, does this render these tasks inappropriate for GSoC?
