Thank you for your interest in helping revisit GSoC ideas and come up with new 
ones! October 22 is an application deadline for prospective interns. QEMU would 
need to have some project ideas listed by September 8, though you can add more 
ideas through September. The timeline for the program is at 
https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2014/DecemberMarch You don't 
need very many ideas, as you are likely to only have at most 2-3 participants.

We don't yet have any funding confirmed for QEMU, but Stefan and I will be 
working on this. If your organization might be able to sponsor QEMU internships 
in OPW, please contact me and Stefan off-list. You can learn more at 
https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/Admin/InfoForOrgs

Thanks,
Marina
