Hey!

Well, we don't want to disappoint you, but a GSoC for raptor has been 
discussed in 2 threads here already, both with the result that it's not 
necessary or would need some rethink ;)

As said, don't want to disappoint you in any way, of course you're welcome to 
join development even if it's not in SoC...
