I should add Prior to GSoC here. 3. Students must have committed some code / package or some other form of contribution to openSUSE. prior to GSoC. This sounds better I believe The idea is to get in more contributions and bootstrap students to openSUSE rather than waiting for the GSoC timelines.
Is anything specifically related to packaging appropriate? The GSoC sponsorships are for coding not packaging. If a student knows nothing about packaging what are they supposed to do?
Yes, but a few organizations have it. I am not sure if we will take in packaging related tasks, but we should not completely turn them down. Code related tasks will be of higher priority usually. Fedora had it in 2011, a packaging related project http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2011/sanjay_ankur/1400...
Do most of the sponsored programs involve code living in a SCCR system under openSUSE's umbrella?
I am not sure what do you mean by SCCR system, sorry, can you explain it?
