Hi everyone!
Google earlier today announced the selected students for Google Summer of
Code 2010. We're happy to report we've received six students, listed here:

We had a lot of really great proposals this year, and a really engaged
mentor group helping with the selection process. It was both wonderful to
have so many choices, and really sad that we couldn't pick them all, but in
the end, we had to narrow the list down.
To the students that weren't selected: do know that we were inspired by the
quality level of all of the proposals, and we had to turn down some really
exceptional proposals. Please don't be discouraged, and do consider us next
year!
To the students selected: congratulations! Welcome aboard! We really look
forward to working with you to make sure you are successful and have a great
time in the process.
To everyone volunteering as a mentor who helped with the selection process:
thank you for your effort and dedication! There was a lot to sort through,
but I think we can all feel great that we have a group of very capable
students on the case this year thanks to your work.
