Hi folks -- Google's just officially announced the list of accepted projects for Summer of Code 2009, so that means I can now, too.
We deliberately set the bar *very* high this year, and I was gratified to see our prospective students rise to the occasion. Many thanks to all who applied! We received about twenty proposals, but there was broad agreement among the mentors that six in particular really stood out. So, with no further ado, I'm happy to announce Django's Summer of Code 2009 projects are: Honza Král, "Model aware validation" Mentor: Joseph Kocherhans Kevin Kubasik, "Upgrade the Awesomness Quotient of the Django Test Utils and Regression Suite" Mentor: Eric Holscher Christopher Cahoon, "Improved HTTP and WSGI Support" Mentor: Malcolm Tredinnick Zain Memon, "UI improvements for the admin interface" Mentor: Jacob Kaplan-Moss Marc Albert Garcia Gonzalo, "Implementation of additional i18n features" Mentor: Jannis Leidel Congratulations all! If you'd like to read the details of any of these projects, please check out http://socghop.appspot.com/org/home/google/gsoc2009/django. One of the requirements this year is weekly check-ins from each student, so you'll be seeing the first of these later this week. I'm really excited about these projects; this is shaping up to be the best Summer of Code yet!
