Hello, all, First, a big thanks to everyone who has helped build up our Project Ideas page[1]. Without your help, we would have a much weaker application for participating in this year's Google Summer of Code (GSoC).
Earlier today, the application period for mentoring organisations closed. Over the next week, Google will be reviewing all of these applications and selecting the organisations that will be participating in this year's program. Their selections will be announced at 19:00 UTC on the 8 April. (As an aside, it may not be too late to add project ideas over the weekend.) If Clojure is selected to participate again this year, then the time will begin for students to start preparing their applications. This will be the time for students to start getting in contact with potential mentors and begin preparing their applications. The student application period will be from 22 Apr-3 May. Once the student application period closes, we will need to review and rank all of the proposals that we received. This will mark the beginning of a period where we will find out how many students we will get as an organisation, and then we will need to make our final selections of students and mentors by 24 May. On 27 May, Google will announce the accepted students. Again, thank you again to all of you who have helped us put together what I believe is a strong application. Here's to hoping we will see Clojure participate in GSoC for our second time. Sincerely, Daniel [1]: http://dev.clojure.org/display/community/Project+Ideas
