Computer science students respond well to outreach -- many may not know
about GSoC, many more may not know about FreeBSD. We've produce a
letter/A4 poster for you to print out, in B&W or colour, and post
strategically at universities and colleges -- especially computer science
departments. General information here:

  http://www.freebsd.org/projects/summerofcode.html

Poster PDF available here:

  http://www.freebsd.org/projects/2009-freebsd-gsoc.pdf

If you don't like the design, you want to nitpick the spelling, you feel
the funny red beachball with ears sucks, the Google logo is fuzzy, or you
think there's too much text -- yes, we've heard it already, and we're not
interested. Produce a better poster yourself and get back to us. Besides,
perhaps if you're an undergraduate computer scientist looking for a summer
job, you have even less design experience than us. :-)

Also, if you're really enthusiastic, consider running an information
session for students (especially if you teach at a university/college) on
FreeBSD background, proposal ideas, and what we like to see in proposals.
Of course, we're not just interested in undergraduates -- we've had very
strong projects from masters, phd, etc, students in the past as well.
