[Printing-architecture] REMINDER: Google Summer of Code 2022 - Project ideas page for the Linux Foundation online

Hi,

some weeks ago, I asked you all to post your project ideas on our Wiki 
pages (see below).

As the application time window for the organizations has started and 
when it will end on Feb 21, Google will start evaluating and selecting 
the orgs, I am reminding you to update your sub-groups page with the 
current project information and also update everything what is needed, 
especially talk about "contributors" and not "students" when talking 
about the people who are coding, and also check your IRC channel 
references because of the (semi-)demise of Freenode.

Please also remove the "Still needs to get updated!!" on your 
workgroup's page.

And for each idea tell whether it is for a half-time or full-time project.

Also note the more and the better described ideas are posted, the better 
are our chances to get accepted. You can remove (and also change or add) 
projects later.

As an example, have a look at
