Hi everyone, I am currently thinking about applying for the 2017 run of Google Summer of Code. Because I am an avid Arch user and general Linux enthusiast I thought it would be nice to work on Arch and make my contribution back to the community. This discussion seems to come up most years and I don’t know what the outcome of this was previously but I thought I’d ask anyway. I am a PhD student in theoretical and computational materials science based in London. I am an experienced c++ and python user but I am getting more and more interested in the inner workings of the linux kernel and the way various distributions are built on top of it, which also explains my interest in doing this. Anyone know whether someone of the Arch developers could be interested in (or gently persuaded into) mentoring a Summer of code project? Best wishes, Jonas
