... WE HAVE GOT 21 SLOTS ALLOWED!!!!
First: congratulations to everybody involved: mentors AND
students.
This
number reflects succinctly how much someone like Google trusts
you.
Second: this relaxes a lot our selection process. Between this
and
OPW
we
can accommodate many good proposals.
Third: still, we will keep standards high as we have done so far.
Having
21 slots doesn't mean that we will take them blindly. We will
continue
asking questions to mentors and students about the feasibility of
each
proposal and we will consider accepted only those that have all
the
foundations in place.
Last but not least: remember the important point about
confidentiality.
Now several projects might look pretty obvious candidates but
this
doesn't
authorize anybody to leak / pre-announce our decisions made.
is
still the one that must announce all accepted GSoC projects
first.
PS: and now, if you don't mind, I'll go get some sophisticated alcohol-free drink to celebrate. Salut!
