= Google Summer of Code 2009 = 

We're listing here some ideas we have which could be done as a good GSoC project. Please note that this page should give you only a rough view about what could be done. 


 * [wiki:GoogleSummerofCode09/Mvfs Using a vfs library to link against]:
     Currently mc uses it own vfs code to access remote filesystems. As some of them are quite buggy we decided to switch to a new vfs library called libmvfs. As this lib doesn't handle atm all remote filesystems we need there is great help appreciated in order to add this into the lib. As this is really much work there are maybe two or more projects here.

 * [wiki:GoogleSummerofCode09/Threads Using threads for some actions]:
     Currently mc is not usable while copying large files or similiar. Moving such actions into own threads would help here. However this will most probably need a major rewrite of some functions. 

 * [wiki:McEditXCopy Adding support to copy from X-clipboard into mcedit]:
     As you probably know it's currently not possible to copy something from another window into mcedit or from mcedit into another window. As a good editor should able to handle this we need this support :).

 * [wiki:McEditStandaloneBinary Make mcedit to be a standalone binary]:
     Currently mcedit is called via mc -e.. As we would like to make two or three binaries out of mc (mc, mcedit, mcview) this would be a great step into the right direction.
