[MirageOS-devel] MirageOS and GSoC (was: Re: IMPORTANT: GSoC 2015 page created - Need to confirm old projects, create/review new ones and fix projects with issues before Feb 22nd)

[Amir Chaudhry <amc79@xxxxxxxxx>]

[removed others so we can continue discussion ourselves]

Last year we had three projects (see below) but since we're curating a set of 
our own, I'd like to make sure we've filled that out too.

Last year's list - are these still valid?
• Create a tiny VM for easy load testing
• Fuzz testing Xen with Mirage
• Mirage OS web stack testing
(via http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/GSoC_2015#Mirage_OS)

If you have ideas for projects, please add them to the wiki and we can then add 
them to the pool for GSoC.
We have a number of projects already listed but I'm sure there are several 
others we can think of.  I'll bring this up during the next call.

Best wishes,
Amir
