Then let's repeat it with a more eye-catching subject, and cc all of the people who have said they would mentor so far.
For those just joining us:
The Google Summer of Code application deadline is this Friday (March 11) at 23:00 UTC. They will be looking at our ideas page at:
https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/SoC2011Ideas
If you have any ideas, please add them to the page! Whether you are available to mentor the project, or simply think it would make a good project and want to inspire others to mentor it, it's appropriate to go there.
