The Wheel turns, and months come and pass, leaving blog posts that fade into 404s; a wind rose in Mountain View, whispering of the coming Winter...
Tonight I sat down and finally looked into the 2011 SoCs to see how they turned out and judge them according to my whimsically arbitrary and subjective standards: http://www.gwern.net/Haskell%20Summer%20of%20Code#results-1
They turned out pretty much as I predicted - but then I *would* say that, wouldn't I?
As I've said before. You clearly have a strong opinion about GSoC and care about the projects that are accepted. You should sign up as a mentor next year, even if it's only to review proposals and provide feedback. Especially if you think half of the projects are doomed each year. Jason
