Summer Of Code 2006

Thursday, May 4th, 2006

Yes! The applications for student proposals for SoC 2006 opened on Monday.
I’ve added my proposals but I have some more ideas so I’ll probably write one or two more. Well, if all goes well one of my current ones has quite a chance to get accepted, so keep your fingers crossed. ;)
