[oe] Google Summer of Code

I'm a first year Computer Science major interested in participating in 
Google Summer of Code. What's the process for doing this in OE? Is there 
a process? Who should I talk to about mentoring? Are there any projects 
that I could do? I'm relatively familiar with OE, specifically Angstrom, 
as I have a two Zaurii, a C3200 and an SL-5500.

I don't know of anything specific about OE that's not fully functional, 
although, one project I was thinking about was a GUI video player, as a 
frontend for mplayer. This would incorporate the accelerated video that 
some of the Zaurii have, and would be full screen. Ideally, it'd be able 
to recognize that the screen is flipped, and potentially still allow for 
landscape mode(where the zaurus would be in vertical position, but the 
video would play in landscape/widescreen mode).

This is just a preliminary idea, I don't know how feasible it actually 
is. Thanks
