[Haskell] [haskell.org Google Summer of Code] 18 Projects Accepted

I'd like to thank everyone for helping us to get the largest Google Summer of Code we've ever had for haskell.org off the ground! We have 18 accepted projects this year, spanning the entire ecosystem. You can find the official list on: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org2/google/gsoc2015/haskell The most notable change this year is that in addition to the usual stable full of cabal tweaks (3 projects this year), and other infrastructure and library changes and the odd darcs project here and there (1 project), we also took it upon ourselves to act as an umbrella organization for purescript (2 projects). * I'd like to thank Johan Tibell for helping us get our ideas organized, and the /r/haskell moderators for leaving the brainstorming page "stickied" for the duration. It rather dramatically improved both the quantity and the quality of proposals we received. After I put out a call for additional mentoring help, we had 44 mentors step up to offer to help this time around, showing that we still have capacity to grow in years to come. Thank you all for putting in the time to help rank proposals and for your continued efforts over this summer. I'd also like to thank Shachaf Ben-Kiki and Gershom Bazerman for helping out with the administration side of things. Now we are entering what Google calls the "Community Bonding" period. Students officially start coding May 25th. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. -Edward Kmett haskell.org Google Summer of Code Administrator * Purescript and Darcs proposals went into the same pool as everyone else this year without earmarking. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
