I agree, having been the GSoc admin for the OSM side, I think the students were doing a terrific job and at least 2-3 out of 4 are still active in the community. However, the appreciation or uptake by the community was less enthusiastic, unfortunately. Just to be upfront clear about it: I think OSM should participate at GSoC again, but I am not going to handle it this year. I have plenty of other duties and my time for OSM has been reduced even more since I own an OpenMoko :-). spaetz _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
