Hi! As a student you have a lot of flexibility, and can pretty much propose anything you'd like, however it will be evaluated by all the other mentors, so co-ordination leads to a higher chance of acceptance.
I submitted a PAM project idea to the GNU project list, but it hasn't been published yet: http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas.html +<li>Improve the PAM module for host-based authentication using Shishi, +possibly including a mechanism to automatically create Kerberos +principals for existing "password"-based users, to allow smooth +transition. Have a look at the 2006 ideas too in case you find something of interest: http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2006.html#gss http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2006.html#shishi Btw, the Google deadline seem to be March 26, not the 24th which I might have said earlier. I'm also the mentor for some other projects too: http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2006.html#gnutls http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2006.html#libidn http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas-2006.html#sasl /Simon "Ashwin Ganti" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Hi Simon, > > I am very interesed in working on this. > Please let me know the project idea so that I can write a proposal and > submit it asap. > I have signed up as a student for SOC. > I shall start working on the proposal once I know the project idea. > > Thanks > Ashwin. > > On 3/20/07, Simon Josefsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Simon Josefsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: >> >> >> 3.
