I have a nice project idea: build a replacement for HP's iLO (integrated lights out) system. Basically, all it needs to do is provide remote power and reset buttons for a server. An advanced version could also provide a remote keyboard, mouse, video, and port for an USB stick. The main reason why I'd want this is because HP's support system is a mess, iLO is expensive, and restricted to HP servers.
I think it could be done with a Raspberry Pi, and hopefully with minimal soldering inside the server itself.
