Google Summer of Code 2009

Official Website: #-Link-Snipped-#

Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a global program that offers student developers stipends to write code for various open source projects. Google will be working with several open source, free software, and technology-related groups to identify and fund several projects over a three month period. Historically, the program has brought together nearly 2,500 students with over 180 open source projects to create millions of lines of code. The program, which kicked off in #-Link-Snipped-#, is now in its fifth year. If you are feeling nostalgic or are interested in learning more about the projects we have worked with in the past, check out the #-Link-Snipped-#, #-Link-Snipped-# and #-Link-Snipped-# program pages.



While the majority of past student participants were enrolled in university Computer Science and Computer Engineering programs, GSoCers come from a wide variety of educational backgrounds, from computational biology to mining engineering. Many of our past participants had never participated in an open source project before GSoC; others used the GSoC stipend as an opportunity to concentrate fully on their existing open source coding activities over the summer. Many of our "graduates" have later become program mentors.
