Awesome idea, thanks for pushing it forward! Not sure if it'd be a good idea or not, but we've never really managed to collect and maintain a list of "easy hacks" that could be useful for Google Code-In and, more generally, to ease the access path to Debian. We've some technical support for it http://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/GiftTag , but we never managed to encourage people to tag bugs and then to use the list of tagged bugs in any useful way. (And possibly the name "gift" is not really appropriate either...) Given that you're thinking anyhow to teams who might have GSoC-like tasks, it *might* make sense to also point them to the gift thingy and encourage them to tags bug accordingly. But it could also have the disadvantage of diverting attention to two conflicting initiatives: GSoC planning and "easy hacks" tagging. I just wanted to mention this here, as a possibility, but I leave it to you whether it'd be a good idea to mention both things when contacting teams or not.
