[docbook-apps] GSoC Application
Looks like odd-numbered years are not good for DocBook at GSoC. Our application for this year's GSoC program was rejected. Thanks to everyone who volunteered to be a mentor and for the interest from prospective students. I hope that some of the ideas generated for this year's program can get implemented in other ways. If not, they can form the basis for another try next year.

Please don't read to much into that decision though (such as how our ideas page could have been at fault); the decisions whether or not to accept an organization aren't entirely deterministic, AFAICT... Thanks to everyone who volunteered to be a mentor and for the interest from prospective students. I hope that some of the ideas generated for this year's program can get implemented in other ways. If not, they can form the basis for another try next year. Indeed, let's hope all the enthusiasm and work that went into preparing and discussing ideas so far wasn't wasted.

[docbook-apps] GSoC application submitted
I just submitted the 2012 GSoC proposal for the DocBook project. You can find the proposal and other information about the program at http://docbook.xmlpress.net. Thanks to everyone who contributed, especially those of you who volunteered to mentor. There is still time to add your name to the mentor list and to add proposals to the idea page. Even if you can't mentor, please check out the site and see what the program is about.
