A report on the 2025 Google Summer of Code Mentor Summit in Munich, where QEMU mentors discussed open source challenges, mentorship practices, and related projects. The article also describes a GSoC project extending Rust crates for vhost-user devices on macOS and BSD.

## Source excerpt

The Google Summer of Code (GSoC) Mentor Summit 2025 took place from October 23rd to 25th in Munich, Germany. This event marks the conclusion of the annual program, bringing together mentors from all over the world. QEMU had another successful year with several interesting projects (details on our organization page), and it was a pleasure for me to represent the QEMU community at the summit, joining mentors from over 100 open source organizations to discuss the program, share experiences, and talk about open source challenges.
