Re: Last version 2.1.8-unstable Loops? and Google Summer of Code

Thanks Leif, it worked!

One last thing, my brother (CC to this email) consider participating in the
Google Summer of Code (
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2011).
Do you or any of the Traffic Server group consider to participate as a
mentor in this program?
If so who should he contact with to discuss possible project?

Best regards and thanks again,
Moshe Kaplan

The best place is this mailing list.

As far as I know, it's not too late to add a project to the ASF list. 
Your brother should let us know what his interests are, and what 
complexity / scope project he's looking for. Working on the ATS core 
would require C/C++ programming experience, and it can be quite a 
challenge. Writing some interesting plugin would still require C/C++, 
but is much easier to get going with. I'm sure we  could also consider 
management type tools, e.g. integration with management tools, which 
might require minimal C/C++ coding.

Cheers,
