Hi all,
As some of you already know, I'm in the process of applying to Google's
Summer of Code as a mentoring organisation. Xfce applied in 2006, but
wasn't accepted. I don't really know why, but hopefully this year we
can do a bit better. To that end, I've created a few pages on our wiki,
and people have been working on them for the past couple weeks:
http://wiki.xfce.org/gsoc-2008-ideas
http://wiki.xfce.org/gsoc-2008-mentors
http://wiki.xfce.org/gsoc-2008-students
Now, we won't know if we've been accepted into the program until March
17th. However, I'd like to generate some interest for our participation
in the program; in particular, I'd like to get some names on that
'students' wiki page.
So, if you don't mind, if you have a blog, or some other means of
publishing to a group of people (via means other than spam, of course),
could you please do a little advertising for us? Just point out that
we're applying to the program, we're looking for student participants,
and give a link to our wiki page (the main 'ideas' page).
Thanks!
