GSoC works, literally, the other way around. Unfortunately GSoC doesn't start with students expressing their interest, then organizations applying based on the student interest they receive. GSoC starts with mentors willing to volunteer to mentor, then organizations deciding to apply based on the level of interest expressed by potential volunteers, then google selecting which organizations can participate, then students expressing an interest. Without a proper task list XOrg will not be selected by Google to participate in GSoC. Google has always been clear that the task list is one of the most important criteria for deciding which organizations they pick to participate. Mentors need to update the task list with ideas they're willing to mentor. So far nobody has volunteered to mentor, and by extension, nobody has volunteered to update the tasks to fit into the new constraints Google is applying to GSoC 2021. Organization applications close Feb 19, if there are no mentors we can't possibly consider participating. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
