Hi all,
 For the sake of the GSoC hopefuls who'd like to get started with
playing with the code (both so they can know if Swift is right for
them, and if they want to prove to us that they're right for us :)),
I've put up a page of tasks that one could look at to get their hands
dirty in Swift coding. They vary in difficulty from fairly trivial (a
few minutes if you're familiar with the codebase, so probably a few
hours getting started) up to the MUC invites and Typo correction,
which would probably take a couple of days for a new user. Please feel
free to have a play if you want to (and ask questions as you have
them).

Also: Thanks to the students who have already shown interest in
spending the summer with Swift.

Also: A reminder to any students trying to use their GMail accounts to
join the Swift room that this won't work properly, and it's easiest to
just grab an account on jabber.org instead
(http://register.jabber.org).

/K
