I am afraid that means that there is no way for you to be paid this year, at least not by Google. That does not mean you cannot pursue your interest in parsers and compilers with us though. Look at the gcc-rust repo (currently on github), contact the authors and see if you can contribute to the effort informally. I am sure they will appreciate any help. I am also sure that there will be work to be done on the Rust-gcc front end for years to come, so if you become a contributor this year, you will be in a prime position to become our GSoC student next year. I understand that the financial renumeration is an important incentive to participate in GSoC but I am afraid we cannot offer any more help, Google will not change their rules for us. Martin
