1 I realize that we're about out of time for students to submit
2 proposals, but here's a couple of additional ideas that might be
3 (or might not be!) worth considering:
4
5 1. Pam cleanup and packaging. Although we're no longer using the
6 infamous RedHat patch sequence for linux-pam, we're still using various
7 not-quite-random patches. It would be really useful to have a
8 student work with other distros and upstream to create something
9 that is better standardized. Diego would be a good person to talk
10 to about this, if he's willing (and it's understandable if he isn't).
11
12 2. I know the name stands for _G_entoo._org_, but we can't be the only
13 people who would find gorg to be extremely useful. Would neysx
14 want help making whatever changes would be needed to make gorg
15 an official Gentoo project (akin to keychain) that would be useful
16 to the broader community?
