We're Expanding the Summer of Code... - 17/Jun/2005
After spot reviewing the applications we've received for the Summer of Code,
we were struck with their high quality. As a result, we were able to
increase the funds available to support 400 students, double our original
number of 200. While this doesn't allow us to take all applicants, we
thought that this would be a terrific thing to do for the mentoring
organizations, the students, open source software and computer science.
Who knows, maybe they'll take on new mentoring organizations.
