I discussed this briefly with Gael and Joel. The consensus was that unless
we already know excellent students who will fit well that it is unlikely we
will participate in GSoC. That being said, if someone (other than me) is
willing to step up and organize it, I'd volunteer to be a mentor again. I
think an important project would be adding multithreading to individual
tree building so we can do gradient boosting in parallel.
