Summer of Code with MySQL Cluster and Apache

It's Summer of Code time again -- a chance for students to do some real-world programming, contribute to an open source project, and earn $4500 over the summer. You have just one week, March 24 - 31, to submit an application.

Over on MySQL's Summer of Code Ideas page, I have listed some projects around MySQL Cluster and mod_ndb. They require some experience with C and C++. I'm hoping they will be great summer of code projects:

You get to work with Apache httpd -- the world's most popular web server since 1996, and a classic example of modular and portable software architecture.
You get to work with cutting-edge technologies (like JSON, REST, MySQL Cluster, and Memcached) that will be more important a few years down the road than they are today.
You get to make an important contribution to a project that's still fairly young and small.

I'm looking forward to the summer!
