I think this is something I'd be interested in as a student... Especially if it helps pluggoPD along (is PluggoPD an active project or something to be potentially carried forward into SoC 2008?). For that matter, are most of the 2007 suggestions still valid for 2008? Are some not?
Also Chris, I think you added your LibPD suggestion to the 2007 summer of code ideas list on http://puredata.info/dev/summer-of-code/GoogleSummerOfCodeIdeas ... Just wanted to let you know that I moved it up to the "Project Ideas for SummerOfCode 2008" section.
Cheers, -martin

We discussed at the LAC that we would like to apply again this year for google's summer of code project, which is about to start today (http://code.google.com/soc/2008/).

I'd be happy to join any team that has a games+audio+Pd proposal as a mentor.
I have added this: http://puredata.info/dev/summer-of-code/LibPd
Which is my proposal to make it easier to compile the audio-engine part of Pd as a library and link it into your own projects. This has been asked about numerous times on the list, almost always to do with games related projects, and we all know that it's happening already in Spore.
Also, this could really help with some of the other SOC projects like PluggoPd, PdVST, etc. so it's highly re-useable.
The only problem here is the confusing name; there is already a PdLib project, which in my opinion should be called 'PdExternals' or something, but LibPd seems a very appropriate name for a project for using Pd as a library.
I guess I'm happy to mentor this but Andy is probably a better candidate than me if he's interested! Or we could co-mentor - whatevs.
Best,
Chris.
