</div>We already have a student for "Easy partitioning" so you choosing \
another one<br> comes in handy :p<br>
<br>
I'd add one more thing to this GSoC which is "Disk Management", \
basically this<br> includes:<br>
1-Creating iso-s from optical mediums<br>
2-Be able to mount the iso's<br>
3-Burn these iso's into an optical medium<br></blockquote><div><br>Doesn't \

What do you think?<br>
<br>
Can you send a proposal to <a \
href="mailto:kde-hardware-devel@kde.org">kde-hardware-devel@kde.org</a> including on \
it some<br> information about yourself?<br>
<br>
Thanks! :)<br>
