"A number of you have emailed us with one question on your minds: Will there be a Summer of Code this year? The answer, as you might have guessed, is yes! The SoC is our program to introduce students to the world of Open Source software development. Last year of the 8744 applicants, 419 students were accepted into the program and more than 80% of them succeeded, which means they received the full stipend of $4500. As of today, we're taking in applications from mentoring organizations, so watch that list of mentoring organizations grow!"

What the SoC did last year:

KDE, Gnome, Apache, Perl, Python, Blender, etc... Thanks to google, all of these projects were extended and improved. Even better, some of the SoC developers continue to work on the project they started to this day.
Thankyou google for advancing the development of quality
