[snip="important info"] Philip (or anyone else who can answer); According to the information I've read (and I'll admit, I've *heard* of the GSoC, but am by no means familiar with it), the organization receives a small stipend as the representative group. My question is: how is this usually spent? The reason I ask is because I'd be very interested in mentoring a student on a project if we can use this money to help move the RFC Wiki (or similar) idea forward. Besides, I'd be killing two birds with one stone.... as it was, I was trying to figure out how I'd afford the box and bandwidth as it is, because the Wiki idea - as I think others may agree - is an excellent step toward the future of the development of PHP. So it's not an unselfish move on my part. -- </Dan> Daniel P. Brown Senior Unix Geek <? while(1) { $me = $mind--; sleep(86400); } ?>
