GSOC application

[faizan khan]

yes I am working on the getting started thing. I thought, I was supposed to
port the complete bsp, not just one device. So I can choose anyone device
in this case can and write driver for it..

I think bbb is getting too much attention so I am looking into other
projects. Do you know who worked on the v8 port. I did a failed experiment
of porting it on Nucleus for k70. Eventually I settled with a lighweight v7
(which is used by mongoose IOT platform). So would love to discuss that..

Also dont you guys use irc....

cheers,
Faizan
