Could you tell us which projects were applied to (and if there were more than one application per project, how many applicants there were), and which ones of that were good?Sure. The other projects were (and in no particular order except the way my brain functions on Fridays):
- Managed C# implementation of Git for Mono: 1 project. This student actually submitted this project also to Mono, and Mono actually did pick it up (with Miguel as the mentor). Since Mono got more spots than we did, and accepted him, I'm happy we didn't accept him. :-) I've actually gotten in touch with this student, and with Miguel, and offered up what co-mentoring assistance we can provide, since the student is reimplementing Git in C#...
- EGit enhancements: 1 project submitted. I wanted to accept this project too, but throw new google.NotEnoughSlotsException().
It's bit a pity that EGit projects was not accpeted as Eclipse project (perhaps it was not submitted also to Eclipse; but IIRC Eclipse had better Git integration as a project). I have put preliminary version of http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/SoC2007Projects If I remember correctly one of the requirements was publishing a git repository, perhaps using repo.or.cz... -- Jakub Narebski Poland
