We are very pleased to announce that nine Haskell projects have been selected to receive funding to the value of $45k under Google's 2006 Summer of Code program. A wide range of projects will be worked on, contributing to the community important tools and libraries. The students have until August 21 to complete their projects, and receive their grants. The Haskell.org team of mentors would like to thank Google for recognizing the importance of supporting the Haskell language and community. This year was extremely competitive, with over 110 Haskell project submissions. Of these, 38 projects received high scores and willing mentors, and 66 received positive reviews overall. We hope that many of the unsuccessful projects will be worked on nonetheless. The following projects were successful.
