I am not a developer yet, but I would like to suggest some idea possibilities:
Minix port of Gentoo Illumos port of Gentoo LLVM/Clang System Compiler Support ICC System Compiler Support (probably easier than LLVM/Clang) Port of Gentoo/FreeBSD to amd64 (or other architectures) Gentoo/FreeBSD KVM port (we don't have to let upstream have all of the fun) Gentoo Prefix --as-needed support on one or more architectures that currently lack it Gentoo Prefix Cygwin support Gentoo Prefix Minix support I might be too inexperienced to serve as a mentor this summer, provided that the recruitment process finishes in time. I would appreciate it if anyone interested in being a mentor for any of these ideas adopted them. On Thu, Mar 8, 2012 at 2:03 AM, Robin H.
