</div></div>Right.<br>
<br>
So you have both <a href="http://kernel.org" target="_blank">kernel.org</a> and the Linux Foundation participating<br>
to Gsoc 2011. However, kernel specific projects are mentored by<br>
the Linux Foundation. <a href="http://kernel.org" target="_blank">kernel.org</a> projects are specific to <a href="http://kernel.org" target="_blank">kernel.org</a><br>
infrastructure, as precised here:<br>

<br>
I asked Till Kamppeter, who handled the Linux Foundation as a mentoring<br>
organization last year, in order to know if he still handles it this<br>
year and how you can apply as a mentor.<br>
<br>
I'm quoting his answer:<br>
<br>
"I am organizing GSoC for the LF again. Simply apply as mentor on<br>
<a href="http://www.google-melange.com" target="_blank">www.google-melange.com</a> with the Linux Foundation as org. Tell that you<br>
are mentoring for kernel or kernelnewbies and I will approve your<br>
request.<br>
<br>
Till"<br>
<br>
You also have this page for some more details:<br>

Good luck!<br>
