[PD] Google SoC: call for mentors and project ideas

[Chuckk Hubbard]

This sounds like a great idea to me.
If I add a dozen or so GUI elements and I want to quickly set their
sends and receives, I have to save the patch, close it, open emacs,
edit, save, close emacs, and reopen the patch.
Would be nice to hit one button to switch.
I think it would be even better if it were perhaps a right-click
option for subpatches and abstractions to open them as code.
I have created patches in the past just for editing other patches as
text automatically.  If that could be done with a running patch I'd be
a happy guy.
