Hi,
I think we should *prefer* students prior contributions, as there will
be a better chance of them sticking around after the end of the
program. This year, we had a heady mix of people with prior
contributions and newcomers. This would be preferable.
Regards,.

Also, in case that same project will have more than one candidate, student that already participate in openSUSE will have advantage, specially if GSoC project is natural extension of his prior activity.
This does not exclude newcomers, but gives incentive to be active, plan for the future and when time comes, just add GSoC project to the regular activity.
This also opens opportunity to work on a bigger projects then GSoC time frame allows.
