Ask HN: Ideas Needed Google SoC 2010.

5 points by gursikh 17y ago

Dear HN Users, I'm planning to apply as a student to Google SoC 2010 tomorrow and I was wondering if the HN community has a wish list of awesome projects that would make their already-awesome opensource software even more awesome. Here's the list of mentor organizations for this year: http://goo.gl/sHNq So, I put it to you to give me something interesting to work on this summer. Darth Vader voice: Do not fail me.

All mentoring organizations have a list of projects on their sites. The Scala projects for example are awesome. Why do you need more ideas? There are a few hundreds of them online (on the gsoc pages of the mentoring organizations). Pick one and get to work!

  I agree. I was a SoCer long time back and its very hard to get a new idea accepted, unless its really good.

    Thanks for the advice guys. I looked through the projects suggested by Drupal and some of the other organizations and found what I was looking for.
