debci and GSoC 2024?

[Christian Kastner <ckk@debian.org>]

Hi,

The Debian ROCm Team is currently collecting ideas to submit for GSoC 2024.

We're pretty heavy users of debci and have a list of our own (very
experimental, not-yet-upstreamable) enhancements, but in the upstream
tracker [1] we found a number of other ideas that would seem generally
interesting, e.g.:

  * cancelling pending jobs [2]
  * per-package timeouts [3]
  * design of the main package page [4]

I thought it couldn't hurt to ping you on this. And it's just a ping --
I realize that depending on the student, mentoring could be more work
than the actual task.

Best,
Christian
