[Buildroot] Buildroot and the Google Summer of Code 2015

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello,

Like the last two years, we have registered Buildroot as a potential
organization for the Google Summer of Code 2015. Of course, we don't
know if Google will accept our application.

That being said, while this process is going on, we have started a Wiki
page to collect ideas of projects:

  http://elinux.org/Buildroot:GSoC_2015_Ideas

We are interested in getting more ideas, and also to hear about
interested students, who would be willing to work this summer on
Buildroot, and get paid for it!

Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested.

Thanks,

Thomas

Sadly, Google rejected our application for the GSoC 2015, so we will
not have any GSoC project this year. We asked the reason of the
rejection, and they said that it was due to the fact that 1/ they had a
record number of applications this year and 2/ our ideas page was too
short in details.
