Probably we need to have a closer read of where GSOC funding is targetted. There may be a way to creatively word the proposals to enhance their chances of being funded. My other suggestion for GSOC tasks would be the various the porting efforts (Windows, Solaris, FreeBSD). These don't require in-depth maths skills and so could be attractive to a wider range of students. -- Peter Jeremy
