Dear Dune devs!

Google announced their Google summer of code 2025 [1]. Org applications 
are upen until February 11th [2].

As Markus already wrote, I am willing to serve as org admin and prepare 
our application. Further, I can serve as co-mentor.
Please share GSoC ideas and volunteer for mentoring!

Once I see some positive feedback, I am starting to prepare the texts 
for our appliation.
