gEDA-user: Google SoC Announcement

[Dan McMahill <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good news!  The gEDA Project has been accepted as a mentoring
organization by Google's Summer of Code program!  The alphabetized
list of all projects participating in Google's SoC is presented here:

http://code.google.com/soc/

gEDA is listed as "The gEDA Project".

The next step is for interested students to apply to Google.  You may
either select a project from our suggestion list, or come up with your
own ideas for a project.  Prior to making an application to Google, I 
suggest you contact one of us (Dan, Stuart) who can informally
review your project proposal, and suggest a mentor for your project.
The mentor will be one of the well-known developers who have worked on
the gEDA Project for a while.  Your mentor will be your boss: he will
help guide you through the code, refine your project requirements,
answer questions, monitor your progress, and  rate your performance at
the middle and at the end of the project.

After that, you must apply directly to Google through this web page:

http://code.google.com/soc/

Good luck with your application, and we look forward to working with
you!

As a reminder to everyone else, friendly discussion is always welcome 
but flaming of any SoC students will not be tolerated.  We want this to 
be a positive experience.

-Dan
