Hi Patrick, Karthik and Christian,
For the note, other project ideas and volunteer are always welcome. So,
feel free to chime in if you have any ideas or wish to volunteer as a
mentor to guide potential future contributors of the community. :-)

I created a fairly rough SoC ideas page for now including a barebones
information about the unit test migration idea:
https://git.github.io/SoC-2024-Ideas/
Note well that the existing idea's description is far from complete and I
mostly just cooked it up to serve as a template for how the idea entry could
look like. Kindly contribute towards elaborating the same :-)
Also, feel free to suggest ideas you have around refs and reftable backed,
Patrick. Those would be helpful.
I'll have a the beginning of next week and will think about topics
meanwhile.
Thanks, Patrick! It would be great if you could share the same as soon
as possible. The deadline for applying to GSoC is Feb 6 (18:00 UTC) and
we need the ideas page to be decent enough before we go ahead with
applying for this year.
If the elaborate project description could take time, feel free to share
a paragraph or two that are supplemented with a few references. That
should be sufficient for applying to GSoC.
Christian,
It would be great if you could look into and improve the detail for the
unit test migration idea. I just added a very terse description based on
what I could get my hands on. If you think the description we used for
the Outreachy round would do, kindly update the page with the same or
kindly share it here so that I could update the same in the ideas page :-)
Yeah, as long as there is a co-mentor that can take over during my
absence I'm happy to do it. Karthik said that he'd be willing to cover
me, which I think would be a good fit given that he's already got quite
a bit of exposure to the reftable backend internally at GitLab. Thanks!
Sounds good. Thank you for volunteering to co-mentor, Karthik!
