[wp-hackers] Wordpress and "Google Summer of Codes" Program

[h0bbel at p0ggel.org]

Summer of Code ended September 1st, 2005. There was some talk about a Winter of Code taking place, but that has been denied by Google at this point.

Google may very well launch a new SoC next summer, but there has not been any official announcement regarding that as of yet. Gallery, which I'm closely involved with, was a part of the SoC this summer and it was a great experience for all of us. Mentors and coders alike. If Wordpress gets a chance to take part of this the next time 'round, take it. It was well worth it!
