Congratulations to all of the applicants on the high quality of applications! For those who were not selected, I'd be happy to discuss your applications off-list (and by mail, not IRC, I'm still catching up on $DAYJOB so replies may take a few days). > But now, without further ado, let's welcome our three GSoC > students: Congratulations to the selected students! And a personal note: > Bhavesh Goyal - A Dashboard for Admins/Owners/Moderators > Mentors: Abhilash Raj, Sneha Priscilla Makini I've mentored a similar project in the past (Shanu Salunke's "Mailman Interface" for Systers), so feel free to include me in discussions. That said, speaking as an individual mentor, I would really like to see most technical discussions take place on this list, or at least be summarized here. I hope folks not participating in GSoC will bear with us (hi, Andrew! some of your older posts are in my queue, someday soon...). Besides wanting to see what students I'm *not* mentoring are up to, we've had issues in the past where a project went off in an unprofitable (ie, hard to integrate) direction when the mentor and student were communicating almost exclusively in personal mail and IRC direct messages. Although your mentor has a *responsibility* to answer you, the rest of us care and want to contribute, and that's easiest if you post to this list. Here's to a fun and productive summer for everyone!
