Slightly late, but I had an idea last night: would "get
Raspbian booting on our raspi2 board model" be a good
project? Would involve some mix of bug fixing, cleaning
up and adding device models from the raspi2 tree on github,
and implementing missing devices. Bit of a "how long is a
piece of string" project, but on the other hand breaks
down easily into small parts that can all go upstream
individually. Would suit student who likes debugging :-)
