Re: Google Summer of Code 2024 - Project ideas page for the Linux Foundation online

Two additional remarks:

- This year Google wants to preferably have AI/ML-related projects, so
   to raise our chances, add such projects to your project ideas lists if
   you have and mark them prominently.

- If you are using Mastodon (Fediverse), please post with hashtags
   #LinuxFoundation and #GSoC. Also if you are using a hashtag for your
   workgroup, add this information to the contacts part of your group's
   project idea page.
