Many of the ideas listed there are too generic ("Write an extension"), improvements of existing features ("Improve Extension:CSS")
This may sound naive, but why are "improvements of existing features" discarded? My thinking was that, if the student didn't have to start from scratch, they would have more time to polish their work and make it fit with our strict standards, hence making it more likely for their work to be merged and deployed.
I have some ideas for existing features and extensions that could use a good summer's work, and I just added one of them to the page, despite not having any ability to personally mentor -- I assumed if there was interest it could get picked up by someone. I hope this is ok!
