[svsm-devel] Call for mentors/ideas for Google Summer of Code

[Stefano Garzarella]

Hi all,
the QEMU community has kindly offered to use their GSoC as an umbrella
for ideas regarding SVSM as well, since there are many students
interested in programming in Rust.

QEMU has been accepted as an organization [1] for GSoC 2025, so we are
looking for ideas and available mentors.

In this thread [2] in qemu-devel, Stefan explained how to share new
ideas. We are a bit behind schedule, by March 24 (the start date of
scholar applications) we should have the ideas added to the QEMU ideas
page [3].

If you prefer, we can discuss ideas here and then post those that have
at least one mentor on the qemu-devel thread [2]. I already have
another accepted idea regarding rust-vmm, but I could help as a
co-mentor if needed.

Thanks,
Stefano
