[PD] Google Summer of Code application is in!

[marius schebella]

I read that the participating organizations will be announced on monday 
14th, and the student application period is from march 24-march31.
luckily, I also found out that it is possible to participate as a 
student even if you graduate in summer (or even may...), the critical 
day is april 14, when you must be enrolled as a student.

are the suggested topics on the wiki already suggested projects, or are 
these overall topics?
I think the most important work would be documentation, but 
documentation-only work is not accepted as a code project.

I would like to step into gem development; multitextures, uv mapping, 
animated meshes, maybe skeleton animation support, pix2jitter bridge, 
opencv externals, tesselation external for polygons, probably 
implementing "point in shape" algorithm. chris or iohannes do you have 
some advice for a "beginner" project...

marius.
