What happened last year, by the way, was that several people wanted to
write a GSOC application. However, nobody volunteered to mentor any
Sage-related GSOC projects at all. As a result, we did not even apply
to have Sage as a mentoring organization.
I will be supervising a 3rd year mathematics/computer science student
this summer to work on things that might end up in sage, so I am very
much interested in projects with as many of the following
characteristics as possible:
1) Allows the student to learn some interesting mathematics
2) does not require too much mathematics background
3) does not require knowledge of too many different components (he'll
only have 4 months, so if he needs all of them to familiarize himself
with the code then he won't be able to do anything interesting)
4) high potential for rewarding results
The lists Burcin pointed to above are already very useful, but if
people know other lists or problems, please let me know.
I have a small list of small projects. I started this list for my
students in a numerical analysis class (ideas for their final projects),
but I've added other stuff to it on occasion.

Some things on that list are small bug fixes that I should really put up
on trac...
Thanks,
Jason
