All,

Just a friendly reminder that Google Summer of Code 2011 begins next 
week on May 24th. As mentioned previously, there are four DSpace 
projects this year, all listed at: 
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/GSOC/GSoC+2011+Projects

This year, we've created a new public DuraSpace GSoC Mailing List for 
discussions of all GSoC projects (DSpace, Fedora or DuraCloud).  If you 
are interested in taking part in those discussions and/or interested in 
receiving GSoC status updates, you are encouraged to join the new 
'duraspace-gsoc' mailing list:
http://groups.google.com/group/duraspace-gsoc/

(NOTE: Some DSpace-specific GSoC discussions may also be copied over to 
this dspace-devel list, but we'd still encourage you to join 
duraspace-gsoc if you'd like to be kept in the loop on all GSoC 
discussions/plans.)

In addition, we've decided to hold a weekly "DSpace GSoC Update" meeting 
in #duraspace IRC every Wednesday at 21:00 UTC, immediately following 
our normal DSpace Developers Meeting. This new GSoC-specific meeting 
provides an opportunity for GSoC projects to interact with one another 
and with other active DSpace developers. We encourage you all to attend! 
  More information about this GSoC meeting is available at: 
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Developer+Meetings (NOTE: this 
new meeting has also been added to the 'DuraSpace Public Events 
Calendar' linked off of that wiki page.)

As members of our DSpace community, you should feel free to provide 
feedback to our students and their mentors on their projects. Ongoing 
feedback is very useful to both students & their mentors, as it ensures 
each GSoC project keeps in mind the needs of the community as a whole.

We hope you are as excited about this year's Google Summer of Code as we 
are!

- Tim
