Hi,
sadly I can't mentor it, but getting the demo Laptop (the Dell D531) finally completely running would be _very_ helpfull. I think getting the GPU completely running will be a could candidate for GSoC (The drivers are already working in a very rough shape). To my last information, the driver is blocked by an PnP issue (https://jira.reactos.org/browse/CORE-14464) .
There are rather many bug reports of graphic driver problems, so the GSoC project could be extended in any way - be it more ATI GPU, trying AMD (thus newer) GPUs, or give Intel drivers a try to get the vast majority working. NVivida could be worth a try as well.
Best regards, Michael Fritscher
P.S. Or should I try to add it to the wiki even despite the fact I will not be able to mentor it (because of lack of knowledge) ?
P.P.S. Another idea could be a OS AC97/HDA audio driver or network drivers for broadcom/intel/realtek (the latest still existing in a way).

Hi all!
While there is still some time until the February 6, 2019 application deadline for projects, we should already begin planning our GSoC participation now!
As today's meeting already has a long agenda, I delibereately didn't add GSoC to it. But I've already created https://reactos.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2019 and https://reactos.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2019_Ideas
Please decide whether you want to be a GSoC org admin or mentor and add your ideas to the list or remove deprecated ones. My experience from the Mentor Summit tells me that proper planning and advertising can make a huge difference for our 2019 participation and will certainly get us more students :)
Cheers,
Colin
