GNOME GSoC 2010 Students
Earlier this week, the GNOME students for Google’s Summer of Code 2010 were announced. Below you can find a sneak preview of what we can expect to see. We’ve had a ton of good proposals and as such a really though selection process.
In the end the selection was made based on a number of factors , which include the quality of the proposal, the usefulness for GNOME, the potential stick-around-after-gsoc-factor and others.
Also, some of the titles and abstracts below might not fully represent the actual projects, as we’ve asked some students to adjust their projects. More info will come over the coming weeks (mostly from the students themselves). Stay tuned!
