Hello, It looks like 'pygame' wasn't chosen to be a mentor organisation this year. We've received no communication from google throughout the process, but I hope to find out their reasons so we might get in next year. I'll share whatever I find out.
We still might be able to do projects under the following mentor organisations that were accepted: Python Software Foundation <http://code.google.com/soc/psf/about.html> ( ideas <http://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode>) One Laptop per Child <http://code.google.com/soc/olpc/about.html> (ideas<http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Summer%20of%20Code/Ideas>) Simple DirectMedia Layer <http://code.google.com/soc/sdl/about.html> (ideas<http://www.libsdl.org/gsoc.php>) cheers, On Sun, Mar 9, 2008 at 12:25 PM, René Dudfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Cool, that'd be good. > > Start thinking of ideas for projects you'd want to work on, and I'll > let you know the outcome of our application.
