Description (last modified by DarthArachides) (diff)

Haskell lacks libraries for interacting with email. An IMAP library or even a full email client (with the decision between them being left to a mentor) would be an ideal project for Summer of Code.

Nice idea but not widely useful enough. From experience students aren't very good at designing APIs.
