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. Congratulations to these students! * Fast Mutable Collection Types for Haskell, Caio Marcelo de Oliveira Filho, Mentor: Audrey Tang * Port Haddock to use GHC, David Waern, Mentor: Simon Marlow * A model for client-side scripts with HSP, Joel Bj�rnson, Mentor: Niklas Broberg * GHCi based debugger for Haskell, Jos� Iborra L�pez, Mentor: David Himmelstrup * HaskellNet, Jun Mukai, Mentor: Shae Erisson * Language.C - a C parser written in Haskell, Marc Ernst Eddy van Woerkom, Mentor: Manuel Chakravarty * Implement a better type checker for Yhc, Mathieu Boespflug, Mentor: Malcolm Wallace * Thin out cabal-get and integrate in GHC, Paolo Martini, Mentor: Isaac Jones * Unicode ByteString, Data.Rope, Parsec for generic strings, Spencer Janssen, Mentor: Don Stewart We wish the students good luck and good hacking!

It's a rad to be working on an Haskell project for this year's Summer of Code! I would like to hug personally every person who spent time on the project so far -- thank you for volunteering, for the incredible number of interesting ideas, and for the support! :-) Google is also doing a great job in recognizing the power of the language and the community. Thank you very much. Hoping to hear from the other students as well, have a joyous Summer! Paolo. --
Is there a link to the project descriptions somewhere. They look really interesting. -alex- On Wed, 24 May 2006, Donald Bruce Stewart wrote:

We have got a trac site at this url: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/summer-of-code/> There you can find briefly explained all the project proposals from Haskell.org and some from the students. We are also probably going to use the ticket system to keep track of the work on the projects, it worked well for the preliminary phase. Ideas are welcome, we would like to collect materials group of people running the thing the next year, if any. Peace, Paolo. --
