openSUSE is considering to apply for Google Summer of Code this year.
We offered some projects in the past, some of them were indeed executed([1],[2]).
[1] Alternatives YaST Module https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/13 [2] Rewrite Keyboard Management - Done out of GSoC https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/79
Others never made it to GSoC for several reasons, although some of them were finally implemented by the YaST Team itself ([3],[4],[5])
[3] REST API for testing based on libYUI https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/87 [4] Apache initial setup YaST Module https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/12 [5] Native Ruby interface for libYUI https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues/11
Time to resurrect any of those projects or come with a new one? Anyone willing to mentor? I am, although I have not decided the project yet.
Some preliminary ideas (I could elaborate any of them, if needed), if someone wants to co-mentor: - New widgets for libYUI (like proper bargraphs or native list selection) - Support in gettext and weblate for Ruby-style placeholders (maybe not big enough?) - Proper NFS client support in the Partitioner (instead of embedding yast-nfs-client... which is heavily outdated) - Better libYUI support for 4k, 8k... ∞K - A new/alternative (really simpler) YaST Users - Modernize some of those old modules we cannot drop but that are really outdated (yast-dhcp-server or yast-dns-server, for example). I would co-mentor any of those (or any other idea you can come with).
