Google has allocated OSAF 3 students for the Summer of  Code  
program.   Please join me in congratulating them!

Elliot Lee - Cosmo Atom Publishing - Mentor: Brian Moseley
Ernesto Rivera - Chandler: Contacts/Address Book enhancements -  
Mentor: Grant Baillie
Xun Luo - Multivariate  Analysis for PIM Data - Mentor Philippe Bossut

Competition for slots was pretty high this year, it appears that one  
in ten proposals was accepted.

Expect to see Elliot, Ernesto, and Xun on the various project lists  
and do what you can to welcome them and help them succeed

One idea that Xun suggested was to have a weekly IRC office hour (in  
addition to list traffic) for the SoC students and their mentors.    
This would probably also include the OSAF summer interns as well.   
The initial proposal for this time is Wednesdays at 11AM PST.    If  
this will not work for your schedule please feel free to speak up so  
that we can get a time that works for everyone.   Also, please feel  
free to send general Summer of Code messages to the OSAF general  
list, general at osafoundation.org

Ted
