c4d15192c9 Forced commit to provide more detail for commit message for
ideas.xml:1.38:

The syncer project idea is being removed because the current idea
fails to reflect the high level of complexity and interdependence
with other subsystems, and the specific strategy identified in the
idea is not the consensus view on the way forward.  We will hold a
buffer cache strategy session at the devsummit to try and iron out
a plan forward, and can re-add specific items generated by that
group to the ideas list once agreement is reached on direction.
At this point, any actual coding would be highly premature.

3cb63115c6 Un-tag sysenter support as soc-friendly; the gains on i386 are believed to
be questionable, and this particular project idea seems not to lead to
good SoC proposals (after a year or two of efforts), so leave it where
students can find it, but don't specifically encourage proposals for the
idea.

213fb932f5 Break 'soc' tag out into two different tags, 'soc' for ideas for this year,
and 'soc2007' to reflect ideas still on the list from last year, but that
had owners who made significant headway.  Now we can tag new projects with
'soc' if we think they are particularly student-friendly.
