Hello,
It was great news to hear that I was selected. Even though last year I
was not selected (I applied for 3 orgs, none of which was ArgoUML), I
kept on going and hoped for the best this year. I also changed the
strategy: I've presented my project to the community and I've started
working on some issues. This allowed me to get to know the community
better, to see if it was suitable for me and to get a taste of how it
feels working with the community. It felt great and I believe that it
will last through the summer.
My proposal, about "Usability issues of diagrams", can be found here:
http://fex.insa-lyon.fr/get?k=dPJ0J0podojJMgQQXBx
You can find detailed information about me and about the project.
I would like to thank Bob and the others for the feedback and remarks
that helped improve my application and Michiel for the help with the
Issues and the Patches.
Cheers,
Bogdan, hoping to make this summer as exciting as possible

Hello,
I will be the student working on improving and enhancing
ArgoUML/ArgoEclipse integration this summer.
Between now and the official start date I'll be working with my mentor
and other members of the community to better scope and refine a
project plan for the summer, but in general it will follow this
general outline:
- Improve existing functionality
- Improved Swing/SWT integration
- Fix existing bugs
- Upgrade to latest eclipse?
- Tighter ArgoUML/Eclipse integration (menus, toolbars, preference
pages etc)
- Integrate missing features
- Bug fixes, code clean up, documentation, etc
I will be going through and adding tickets to the ArgoEclipse issue
tracker over the next few weeks and encourage you guys to do so as
well if there is a bug that has been nagging you or a feature you'd
really like to see.
For those who are interested a copy of my proposal can be obtained at:

Thanks again, I look forward to working with you all this summer!
Brian

Hi all
I'd like to echo Tom and Linus comments about the students we lost
this year. We requested a certain allocation of students from Google
but Google restricted those numbers below our requested limited. This
is a very popular program and unfortunately even Google have some
limit to their funding.
For those of you having joined the program this year perhaps you could
introduce yourselves here on the dev list with a short summary of the
work you intend to do. There will be those watching the list who will
not have access to your proposals and may well be curious.
We'd like to encourage you to communicate and seek help and assistance
using the dev list. Open source development is a community process and
it's important for the community to be able to give their own input
and guidance to your work as well as your mentor.
Welcome on board and good luck with all your projects.
Regards
Bob.
