 Excellent:
 so Dmitry, since you are the core maintainer of strace, do I have
your OK to submit the strace project as a candidate mentoring project
for the GSOC?

Here are more details:

There is no rush to decide since there are a few more days left before
the deadline of Feb 14.

There would be a need to have a second name as an "org" admin. I am
assuming that would be you Dmitry, unless some other maintainer wants
to jump in.

And submitting strace as a project does not mean it will be accepted,
and if accepted it does not mean we would get any student allocated.

So at the moment submitting strace to GSOC would be just a potential
opportunity.
Cordially
