Just to update - I filled out an application at length, but there were a couple of typos in the Google web-app that led me to believe the application was later than it actually was. There's talk of a possible extension to the deadline as a result, but...
...it turns out that Apache as an umbrella organisation are participating in SoC, and by labelling JIRAs with 'gsoc' and 'mentor' we appear in the list of potential projects at https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=12314021(and, sneakily, ZooKeeper is right at the top of that list ;)). See http://community.apache.org/gsoc.html for more details. So the recent raft of rather large-sounding JIRAs were me copying the ideas from http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/SoC2010Ideas to ZK JIRA. Thanks for the ideas - now we wait for applications... Henry On 11 March 2010 12:32, Patrick Hunt <ph...@apache.org> wrote: > Henry, good idea.
