Hi Paran,

Thanks for being interested in GSoC with Linux perf. Here is what I
posted on the mailing list:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/CAP-5=fWxF6in4vQyGuh=0kpAYEXAYZN_KobXCY=TX2oxssZ+HQ@mail.gmail.com/
Applications are ultimately sent to:
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/
and the entry requirements are there. I believe they are less strict
than previously.

Wrt the patch, could you reply to Conor's response.

Thanks,
Ian
