> First and foremost, Happy 2009 to all! For those of you recently
> enjoying holidays, I hope they were pleasant and restful.

> We've received Executive approval to run Google Summer of Code and the
> Google Highly Open Participation Contest once again in 2009. Summer of
> Code will be a bit smaller (targeting ~1000 students this year) so we
> will likely target fewer organizations (~150).  The stipend amounts
> ($4500 to the successful student and $500 to the organization) will
> remain unchanged.

> We'll be making a teaser announcement on the program discussion list
> later today, and once that happens you should feel free to begin
> finding your would-be 2009 students. It is, however, imperative that
> you make clear that there is no guarantee that your organization will
> be accepted in GSoC 2009. You should also make clear to these would-be
> student participants that you cannot in any way guarantee a place for
> them in the program just because your organization is accepted into
> GSoC 2009.

> I'll be making a more formal announcement, including details on timing
> for 2009, at FOSDEM. I'll post the salient points to this list since I
> can imagine most of you will not be able to attend the conference. For
> now, it's safe to assume the program timeline is roughly the same as
> for 2008.
>
> For those interested in all things GHOP, we will be holding the
> Contest once again this year, likely in November. We will not be
> expanding its scope greatly, and whether this means we will accept few
> organizations or more organizations with less funding for each is TBD.
> More on GHOP and incentivizing younger students to participate in your
> project in the interim before the contest forthcoming in a few weeks -
> stay tuned. After that mail, I'll make sure discussion of the contest
> is redirected to the most appropriate mailing list.
>
> Any questions, ask away.
