#OVERVIEW
#
#The general idea is that it would be nice to have a Plan 9/Inferno
#native mechanism to help use track google summer of code activities
#before, during, and after the summer. The main motivation for this
#was some of the crazy stuff that went on last year using the google
#voting interface, it would give us more control over preventing such
#things. So, the general idea is to have a synthetic file server
#which exports both file system and web-appropriate hierarchies which
#facilitate summer-of-code activities. The idea being that you could
#interact with them as easily under ACME as under a web-browser. This
#is really an instantiation of what I've been calling
#service-oriented-file-systems.
#
#POTENTIAL MILESTONES
#
# * synethtic file system and web interface
# * posting project ideas
# * voting for projects
# * registering student interest in projects
# * project milestone tracking
# * project blogs and wikis
# * post-summer project success metrics (subjective and objective)
# * (stretch) syndication points for community monitoring
# * (stretch) potential integration with SCM
# * (stretch) potential integration with some form of chat
# * (stretch) potential integration with name space sharing
