Christiaan has already been on the #soc-help channel and expressed an
interest in working with Catalyst for GSoC, so that's why we sent him
here :-)

We have found that in general GSoC is a much better expereince for both
the student and the project if the student gets involved with the
community as early as possible.  That way everyone has a better idea of
what they are letting themselves into.  Of course, the programme hasn't
even started yet, but it's never too early :)

So consider this also as a call to check what's on
http://wiki.enlightenedperl.org/gsoc2012/ideas and to update and add to
it if possible.  Also, if anyone would like to mentor, we'll shortly be
calling for volunteers.  [ John's "yet" is noted :-) ]

Thanks,
