The PostgreSQL project welcomes our seven Summer of Code students. We're
expecting some really cool new features of this, and more importantly,
some new PostgreSQL contributors! The projects are:
* Full Disjunctions by Itzhak Fadida, mentored by Jonah H. Harris
* xlog viewer by Diogo de Oliveira Biazus, mentored by Simon Riggs
* Hashing DISTINCT Clause Implementation by Beth Jen, mentored by Jonah
H. Harris
* phpPgAdmin improvements by John Jawed, mentored by Robert Treat
* Enhanced Aggregate Support by Sergey Koposov, mentored by Oleg
Bartunov
* ECPG Cleanup by Joachim Wieland, mentored by Michael Meskes
* Initial support of XMLType for PostgreSQL by Nikolay Samokhvalov,
mentored by Peter Eisentraut
Additionally, two students have been connected with internship
opportunities at PostgreSQL-supporting companies.
