It's called retrogaming, get on with the times already. Ill informed contemporaries are for always it seems.
Google Summer of Code 2024 Application Submitted
I've just pressed the submit button on the GSoC 2024 application form. All we can do now is keep our fingers crossed that we're accepted this year. In the meantime, we can continue to update and refine the project ideas list: https://github.com/dlang/project-ideas So any submissions to the issues list there are welcome. I expect either Razvan or I will be updating the projects in the root directory after our monthly meeting this week.

Mike, If you want to show some applications written in D, I can offer the Eilmer compressible flow solver as an example. This year it will be ten years that we have been using D to build our flow solver. It has been a good ride. There is a blog entry from a couple of years back https://dlang.org/blog/2022/02/02/a-gas-dynamics-toolkit-in-d/ which is still a good starting point on why we like to write our code in D. You can also browse our main web site https://gdtk.uqcloud.net/ to get an idea of the current state of the project. Feel free to send an email if you want any flashy pictures for your presentation. The fellows here have been doing some impressive calculations in recent times. Regards, Peter Jacobs Peter, I'd be happy to show Filmer -- if you have any flashy pictures please send them my way at mikes...@northeastern.edu. Otherwise I'll grab what I can from the website with a citation :) Will close this announcement out with the link which now includes the slides, and in the future the video (and there should be a video on YouTube soon as well). https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-2092-the-d-programming-language-for-modern-open-source-development/
