Re: LF GSoC page

I'm not really involved at all in this, just a fellow newbie concerned for
other ones. If it's appropriate I can surely add some info, but I'm not
sure if I'm the right person?

BR,

 Hi,

 the best would be if you or Greg edit the page. It is a Wiki page and to
 edit it you need a Linux Foundation account (you can easily create it by
 clicking on the upper right of the page) and membership in the GSOC
 group (simply request it and I will confirm it). Then you can add any
 missing contacts, project ideas, and/or some text motivating potential
 students to come with their ideas for the kernel.

  could add some more detail there.
 
  For example Greg K-H has stated he's the one to ping (or email,
  according to himself) - that could be something to add. Also, as far as
  I understand, applicants have to have an idea/suggestion of their own

  about that as well?
 
  Right now everybody else in that channel are more or less clueless,
  which imo isn't a good first impression for applicants =)
