Hi all,
Applications for the Google Summer of Code 2007 are now closed.
Squeak received a total of 34 valid submissions from 25 students, much more than what I expected, this being our first Summer of Code and all.
All the applications seem interesting, and in the coming days we mentors will review and evaluate them. On April 11th Google will then publish the name of the accepted students. Unfortunately, the number of accepted students will be less than 25.
While we wait for April 11th to know the names of the lucky winners, I'd like to thank all the students who decided to apply for a Squeak project and all the mentors who volunteered for this task and who helped many students with their applications. Thanks, all!
Ciao,
Giovanni
Thank you Giovanni for putting so much effort into this. This does look like an excellent start to our first year participating in Google SOC.

My main points for the ranking is that I hope that persons already evolved in the community (ie Damien doing his extremely cool distribution) and mathieu which worked with marcus on the new compiler will be able to continue their great job (and that we as a community can reward them and capitalize on their knowledge) instead of getting paid to develop in C#.

By the way we will have up to five Summertalk projects that ESUG will certainly take from the SOC projects that were not accepted. Of course Summertalk is giving less money but this is better than nothing.
