This is quite a common need, a lack of which has been problematic for Fedora's GSoC participation for years. This year, the Fedora Summer Coding program[1] is looking at OpenHatch.org, discussed here a few times. The vision and current status of the site seem to line up with what I see as the needs from a project side, and seem to line up with what I understand students need. http://OpenHatch.org So, maybe not a solution today, but I hope for more by this summer. - Karsten [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Summer_Coding_2010 -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Gardener team: Red Hat Community Architecture uri: http://TheOpenSourceWay.org/wiki gpg: AD0E0C41
