For this GSoC we would consider someone willing to work on a musl port. https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCodeIdeas#Port_musl_libc For such a port you obviously have to have love for the C language and specific skills (version control, knowledge of the build system, UNIX/syscall knowledge), but I think it may very well be a fun project for the right person. We generally ask for very detailed proposals and it certainly would help if you get to try FreeBSD before considering a proposal, The process is competitive so we are interested in your background. We are aware musl is centered around linux but just as someone managed to port glibc to FreeBSD we think it should be possible to make a port clean port of musl. This project would only make sense if the code is upstreamed, so at some stage we would also appreciate support from musl developers. For applying you should follow the standard procedure with Google. https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/ Best regards, Pedro.
