[ANN] Google Summer Of Code 2007 is open!

[Vincent Massol]

Hi everyone,

Good news, XWiki has been accepted by Google as a participating  
organization for GSoC 2007 (http://code.google.com/soc/) :-)

So far we have 17 projects we're proposing to students. They're  
listed on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/.  
Just to wet everyone's appetite here's the current list:

- Subversion Integration
- Google Web Toolkit Wykiwyg Editor
- OpenOffice Plugin
- WebDAV API
- Google Docs Integration
- Office Import
- WikiModel Integration
- IDE Editor Integration
- Social Networking Functionalities
- Collaborative tools on top of xwiki
- AJAX Interface Improvements
- Storage Improvements
- ApplicationWizard
- XWikiOffline
- GadgetsIntegration
- FunctionalTestSuite
- Skin wizard

It's also possible to propose new projects (on the same page, at the  
bottom of the page there's a new project submission form).

Anyone who's a student can apply at http://groups.google.com/group/ 
google-summer-of-code-announce/web/guide-to-the-gsoc-web-app-for- 
student-applicants

Even if you're not a student yourself you can help by:
- proposing new ideas of projects
- spreading the word (on your blog, by talking to friends, sending  
emails to students you know, etc) that XWiki is looking for bright  
students to register for implementing a XWiki project.

Thanks everyone
