Hi David, Regarding intern projects, I hope you don't neglect the possibility of letting interns work on the Rust compiler itself, in addition to stuff like HTTP servers and web frameworks. At least for me, getting to work *on* Rust as well as *in* Rust is one of the things that made the intern experience particularly rewarding; I think the rest of last summer's interns would probably agree.
