[Gimp-developer] GSoC: good job Michael

2009-04-19 Thread Nicolas Robidoux

I just want to let everyone know that many organizations fell into an
unintended trap having to do the Melange software used by Google to
manage the application process, trap in which Michael Schumacher, our
GSoC admin, did NOT fall.

This was s not a trap for anyone who did read the socghop user guide
at least once and paid attention to the mentors list and the #gsoc channel.

I do not blame any org for failing to assign mentors in time - everyone
can make mistakes. But I am disappointed by those orgs which came up
with attempts to justify or excuse their mistake on the soc mentors list.


HTH,
Michael

... and no, this message does not mean that Melange is malware and/or
does spread viruses.

WTF?, you may ask...

Someone seems to have read Nicolas' message this way and did ask on #gsoc.

Hi Nicolas and all,

Melange or not Melange. Michael did a very good job anyways.
When you read Leslie's emails on the mentor list you can read
about all the problems that other orgs caused by not paying
attention. GIMP so far caused none of them and was always
well organized.

So again: Good job, Michael!

Greetings,
Gerald
