I think we should apply as an organization. If we're rejected, we can still have students submit their proposals under the GNU project... but this should be the fallback plan, IMO, because it lessens the chance of any gdb proposal being approved.

Support tracepoints in gdbserver. I'm wondering if there is any summer-sized multi-inferior project. FWIW, I'm willing to mentor a student. Tom
