Greg, I'd like to put a placeholder for a quote for you in the announcement as well (the lead quote will be coming from Uli).
How would you like to have your attribution described in relation to GSoC? "ASF Vice Chairman and @@WHATEXACTLY" Of course, I'll be happy to get a quote directly from you (vs. having to de-Sally-fy my proposed blurb) :-) If you don't want to be quoted, that's OK; I can use Ross as backup. Thanks so much, Sally ________________________________ From: Greg Stein <gst...@gmail.com> To: Sally Khudairi <s...@apache.org> Cc: Ulrich Stärk <u...@spielviel.de>; "pr...@apache.org" <pr...@apache.org>; "dev@community.apache.org" <dev@community.apache.org> Sent: Friday, 13 March 2015, 17:22 Subject: Re: ASF accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015 The very first year was 2005.
