Read moreProposal: Taxonomy with node-functionality
Overview:
Enhance the taxonomy system with node functionality like: Author, Timestamp, Status (Published, ...)
Description:
According to the old discussion that "Everything is a node (users too)" this will help in a lot of common (to be solved) problems.
Hav e alook at Everything is a node discussion, especially:
Why taxonomy:
* The taxonomy builder becomes a streamlined interface to both build a tree of terms (nodes) and select an item from that tree to classify a node
* Both the tree and each classification can be designated using relationships

Mentors:

Read moreControl Google Apps account through the API
Google Apps have an API for adding users, it would be very useful to be able to setup users directly from Drupal.
A similar thing has been done for moodle : http://code.google.com/p/moodle-google/, so Drupal shouldnt stay behind :-).
If it sounds too easy, we might add integration between spreadsheets and CCK contents (to be able to publish "structural data" on a drupal site just by entering them into a google spreadsheet of the same structure).
Maybe this other one could stand as a project itself ?
Version control integration ideas for GSoC 2009
Overview: Make integration of version control systems with Drupal rock, and at the same time help out a module family that's going to be running on drupal.org soon.
Description:
drupal.org has great integration with CVS, including stuff like a commit messages page (which can also be viewed separately for each project), CVS account management, commit restrictions provided dynamically by the website, or automatic packaging of release tarballs just by specifying the CVS tag when creating the release node. All of that makes drupal.org an immensely powerful and easy to use platform for managing Drupal projects in CVS. As a downside though, all of that works only for CVS, and the fact that it doesn't cope with other version control systems is one major reason that drupal.org is still sticking with CVS all the way.
Version Control API was born as a Summer of Code project (the logs!) in 2007, and aims to provide version control integration for Drupal while not depending on any specific version control system (VCS), and being flexible enough for usage on sites other than drupal.org.

A number of solutions are springing up for deploying site configuration (spaces, patterns, etc). And solutions are starting to spring up around deployment of custom sites as well - the Aegir project and the Domains module both provide tools for pushing out multiple sites on a single infrastructure.
