Hi Justin,

Some ideas were discussed on this list recently:
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2011-03/0576.shtml
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2011-03/0575.shtml

There was a gsoc ideas page on the tigris.org site, but it got lost
during the move to apache.org. It's still in the repository, though:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/www/tasks.html?p=876756

I would sign up to be mentor and review proposals if there is interest.
