Currently, &os; is well proven as a base for routers (pfSense, OPNSense, BSDRP) and NAS (FreeNAS, zfsGuru, Nas4Free). However, &os;-based solutions are almost completely absent in the virtualization area, and ClonOS is one of the attempts to change it.

ClonOS is a new free open-source &os;-based platform for virtual environment creation and management. In the core platform are:

We would like to see ClonOS in real-world use. In this regard we are interested in finding more people and companies who used &os; in hosting tasks. In addition, it could be great to work with the developers of existing NAS solutions (zfsGuru, Nas4Free) + + + Google Summer of Code 2016 + + + + + Gavin + Atkinson + + gavin@FreeBSD.org + + + + + Pedro + Giffuni + + pfg@FreeBSD.org + + + + + GSoC 2016 Projects + GSoC Ideas page + + + +

As in all previous editions of the Google Summer of Code, &os; + was an accepted organization, and we had the chance to mentor 15 + projects. Huge thanks to all our mentors for keeping the high + quality standards that make our community shine.

+ +

This year was rather unique in that we accepted for the first + time well-known members of the community that are not src + committers to co-mentor. We also accepted projects that have + a different upstream than &os;. Both are clear signs that &os; is + growing and adapting to the wider community.

+ +

This year we are also had administrative issues with Perforce + and have accepted officially the use of external repositories, in + particular github, as requested by students.

+ +

12 of 15 projects were successful, which we think is an + excellent result for a Google Summer of Code.

+ + + + Google Inc. + + + + The FreeBSD Foundation + + + + The world is changing and we need fresh project ideas. We + need to start looking for those ideas now. + + The project ideas wiki page has been reset and we need to + get it populated before applying for the next Google Summer of + Code. Please help unleash the next stream of projects you want to + see in &os;. + +
