Hi,

I did a tidy-up of the Mirage/XAPI projects at the bottom. I've deleted
some old projects after speaking with their technical contacts (in
particular Jon Ludlam and Jonathan Davies) and I've deleted the networking
one at the end since that work is in progress anyway.

I've had a stab at classifying them as 'GSoC'-friendly or not, mainly based
on difficulty.

Are we still planning to add a Mentor section with photos and bios?

Cheers,
Dave
