Hi there,

Are there any proposals for Ruby or Rails related projects for GSoC  
2007? I’m trying to find one of those with no luck…

Google will publish the list of mentoring organizations’ applications  
on March 14th, and student can submit their applications between March  
14-24, so wait for 5 more days if you’re a student.

Yes, Ruby Central is planning to serve as a mentoring organization  
again this year. See Pat Eyler’s announcement from yesterday.

Hi,

Google has recently published the participating organizations. I am  
happy to  
see that Ruby Central finally participates, but unfortunately the link  
to  
the project proposals points to nowhere. Could you fix that?

bye,
