We've got a list of tiny things people can do called Bite Sized Tasks: http://qemu-project.org/BiteSizedTasks These are often good first stops for Outreachy/GSoC candidates. Some of those ideas may have been implemented already or are at least "in progress," so we usually recommend people take a look at the devel archives and make sure nobody else is working on them: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/ From there, take a look at our previous Outreachy project list: http://wiki.qemu.org/Outreachy_2015_MayAugust Some of the projects listed here may have not been attempted and may still be available for future applicants if the mentors are still willing. You are also always welcome to dream up your own ideas and propose them. Stefan may have additional information more relevant to this Outreachy "season." Good luck, --js
