GSoC is back for 2012

Hi everyone,

Google Summer of code is back for 2012.

http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2012

Once again I'm happy to administer for the project for AbiWord, though
currency movements can sometimes make a mess of total payments. (Last
year we we're unlucky in the times of AUD vs USD movements).

Google will start accepting organisation applications on February 27th.

I'm also happy to be the first volunteer to be a mentor for 2012.

Who else would like to be a Mentor?

You get $500 USD, (maybe) a free trip to San Francisco (at the end),
the opportunity to work with an awesome student to implement the
feature(s) you've really wanted to get into abiword but mostly the
chance to mentor a really bright person as they learn about Open
Source development.

Marc, Pradeeban, Jean, Xun, Hub, Dom .. anyone else?

Cheers

Martin
