Workers of the future will help shape PacketFence into an even greater project through 3 unique ideas.
We have received 11 proposals for this year's Google Summer of Code[1] and spent many hours making sure we select the most motivated students. Google made the official selection announcement yesterday[2] and, so, we are happy to announce the selected students and their ideas: Name: Joao Moreira Project: Integration to the nmap engine to evaluate the security of connecting devices http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2012/lvwrbr/28002 Name: Mesut Can Gürle Project: Android-based application for devices auto-configuration on WPA-Enterprise networks http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2012/mesutcang/19007 Name: Piotr Sawicki Project: Active-Active clustering support for easier scalability Congratulations to the selected students and thanks to all applicants! http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2012/harold/6001 We are now under the community bonding period[3] for the next month and will get to know each other better, setup some GSoC infrastructure and start working on the projects. We would like to encourage all students (including declined applicants) to stay in touch with the developers by subscribing to our mailing lists[4] or hanging out on IRC[5]. The learning opportunities are numerous for anyone interested in enterprise networking, security and development, making an awesome resume! A great summer is ahead of us!
