Thank you, Quim! I'm glad you're able to take over administering our
GSoC this year and that we are (in my opinion) on our way to a
fulfilling Summer of Code.
Also: Wikimedia uses lots of open source software, and I hope we will
benefit from GSoC students' work on Debian, LibreOffice, Nmap, OWASP,
Python, Linux, WordPress, and more. Through GSoC I've learned of other
FLOSS projects I hadn't heard of before, such as Swathanthra Malayalam
Computing
https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/google/gsoc2013/smc
which works on Malayalam-related software internationalisation. So, yay
for new contributors to our larger community as well.
