Let me know. Thanks. > -chico Hi, as a previous gsoc student I suggest you to simple download the haiku source code along with the build tools and start looking around. Pick up an area you think you can do good at and do your proposal. :-) There is also an IRC channel (#haiku) on freenode where you can find devs to talk with. You can find all the information you need to download and build Haiku in our website, along with the BeBook which contains usefull information about the media kit.
