After Adam and Lars don't have time for this (And Greg didn't even
reply), I send a short mail to the GNU team that we would like to
participate under their umbrella. Maybe this still works out. I also set
up a page in our wiki for GSoC 2011
http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/Summer_Of_Code_2011. This is currently
mostly a copy from last years page. Could everybody please join in an
update this page as well as the page with the general ideas for GSoC?
