Do you have a gsoc mentor lined up? On the GSOC IIO page (https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/gsoc/2020-gsoc-iio-driver) Dragos has been listed as a mentor.

Makes sense. Is there any new driver that needs to be added though? And if not what else can qualify as a project? > Thanks, > > Jonathan > > Thanks, Rohit
