This is a bummer, but I'm not heartbroken about it. It has given us a change to arrange a set of goals for our project[1], and it's also given me an understanding of how we can better prepare for GSoC next year and recruit mentors more effectively.
GSoC mentorship would have put a considerable strain on our project during a crucial period this summer while we are working towards evolving NuPIC towards the vision of the community. Don't be discouraged by this. Our project is still young, and I think next year we'll be in a much stabler place to accommodate GSoC participation. I will be in the IRC meeting noted below to get more details about the rejection. If you're interested, feel free to join in as well.
