I can help with this, but I don't have a clue what the rules are fororganizations. I can ask around inside of Google if I need to. Atthe very least, the sponsoring organization needs to exist as a legalentity, because they get paid $500 per project that is completed. Worst-case, Google itself can sponsor the project and I can act as amentor. If anyone has any good project ideas that would be good for asummer's worth of programming, let me know. Although, frankly, I suspect that someone could start from scratch andre-implement all of Typo in less time then that :-).
