we had a great Google Code-in contest this year. Of the 28 multimedia-related tasks we had, 23 were closed, thanks to three very talented students, Danny (unicodesnowman), Geoffrey (Sn1per) and Mateusz (m4tx). Thanks all for participating and improving MediaWiki, it was a pleasure to work with you! I was continuously impressed by the high quality of the patches.

Thanks Tgr, you've been a fantastic mentor.
