| Google "Summer of Code" includes 100+ desktop Linux projects |
Jun. 25, 2005
Google's "Summer of Code" program, designed to introduce students to the world of open source software development, has chosen 410 projects (out of over 8000 proposed) for sponsorship. Over 100 appear to be related to Open Source desktop software.
The results include 24 from KDE, 12 from GNOME, 15 from GAIM, 10 each from OpenOffice.org and Mozilla, and many more. Specific projects haven't been announced yet, but Greg Stein from Google announced the breakdown to the "summer-discuss" Google Group on a per-project basis. "We'll post the applications and have further data early next week," Stein writes.
