i'm not sure that it's appropriate for LKML folks to be giving anyone
suggestions for projects. the eventual choice of project should be
based on what *shaneed* wants, not what other people tell him he
should be doing.

in addition, sometimes part of the work involved in a school project
involves doing enough research to just make the *choice*. what
shaneed is asking is that others do that work for him. IMHO, he
should be told politely but firmly that selecting a topic is *his*
problem. that's just part of the academic process.
