It is formal and exciting, our application was accepted today to be
part of Google Summer of code!
We are one of 150 free and open source projects that made the cut:

Now is the time for Mapnik users and developers that have an interest
in mentoring a project to get more involved.
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested and/or have any
questions. You can also create an account and apply to be a mentor at:
http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/mentor/request/google/gsoc2010/mapnik
(beware the site is slow right now due to lots of excited people doing
the same)
Also between now and March 29th, when Student applications are due,
we'll likely be hearing from students that are interested and looking
for more information. Everyone should feel free to encourage them and
offer ideas and support on the mailing list and IRC. Everyone should
also feel free to further add to or edit our ideas page:

Cheers,
Dane
