I think it might also be a better year for me to participate as well. I'd start preparing this week by working on: - an OpenGL and OpenGL ES wrapper that would be usable by not just AppKit apps (a thin wrapper around GLX that uses CGL API) - by moving QuartzCore to use that instead of AppKit
If I have some results by the deadline for student registration, I would feel confident to register this year, so it gets to be an even better experience for everyone :-) The project would be: an implementation of parts of UIKit, along with patching QuartzCore where needed.
