It's good to hear, that there are some recruitable qualified personnels.

As I know (I'm not American) research topics are determined by the
graduate school program. So in order to have an available hardened gentoo
topic at a graduate school, there should be at least a staff person, who
runs that. In my home country (Hungary) this usually happens in a way,
that some staff persons have company interest and therefore recruits
graduates for specific purposes. So the best would be to have IT graduate
school staff person with interest in it.
