Background information on mentoring Google Summer of Code internships
with QEMU:

 * Presentation on the big picture, how it works, etc
   "QEMU Community Growth Through Open Source Internships"
   Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNVCX7YMUL8
   Slides: https://vmsplice.net/~stefan/stefanha-kvm-forum-2016.pdf

 * Good project ideas are suitable for 12 weeks of full-time work by a
   competent programmer who is not yet familiar with the codebase.  In
   addition, they are:

    * Well-defined - the scope is clear
    * Self-contained - there are few dependencies
    * Uncontroversial - they are acceptable to the community
    * Incremental - they produce deliverables along the way

 * QEMU may have resources for up to 2 Rust-VMM project ideas this year.
   You can post them here (see template on the wiki page) or email them
   to me:

If you have questions, please let me know.
