I’ve applied on behalf of DragonFly for Google Code-In.  It’s similar to Google Summer of Code, but focuses on 13-18-year-olds and smaller tasks.  It runs over the year-end, and we’ll know if we’re in by November 5th.

In the meantime, if you have ideas that could fit the program (see task list at the Google site), please put them on the DragonFly project page.
