One idea that comes to mind is to come up with a list of popular OSS
projects that we'd like to see add PostgreSQL support and have
students work on those...
As for finding students, I believe a call on -general and -announce
would probably produce results. I know there's some professors on the
lists (most likely to be on -general...)

Summer of Code projects dont have to revolve around the core
project... for
example drupal got like 11 projects last year and bricolage got a
few too; I
got a small list of items that could be looked at that are sort of
3rd party
projects, should we attempt to collaborate on putting up a list
some place?

If nothing else, any of the 'beginner todo' items are likely
candidates, though I suspect none of them individually are enough
work for an entire summer.
If no one beats me to it, I'll try and compile a list of likely TODOs
for this.

Folks,
I've been warned that Summer of Code is coming up again soon. We
need to be
ready with proposals which are officially endorsed by the
PostgreSQL project.
Which means we need:
a) Projects which could be accomplished in a summer, and
b) Students to do them.
We have one or two weeks to get this together. Your help is greatly
desired .. and if you're a CS student hacker reading this, drop me
a line!
