Thanks.

I'd also like to get input from the dev community beforehand.  Last year
we were rushed, and decided to go ahead without really having a
discussion about it first.  It would be nice if we could be a bit more
deliberate this time around.

So, is there support among devs for hosting another round of Summer
students?  Are there good problems for those students to work on, and,
if so, what are they?  Were people happy with how last year's program
went, or should we try to do something different?  For what it's worth,
I think GSOC is worth putting our effort into, but I'd also like to see
projects that at least have the potential to benefit more of the
community than just Gentoo.  *Shrug*

Assuming we decide to be a mentoring organization again, I'm willing to
help with the paperwork and administrative stuff.
