Last year, this was quite a production. There were 3 dot stories. I'm pretty sure that every GSoC participant was mentioned along with what they worked on. http://dot.kde.org/2011/09/26/google-summer-code-achievements-chapter-one. With links to the other stories. Let me know if you want some help with this. Carl _______________________________________________ This message is from the kde-promo mailing list.

KDE has again taken part in Google Summer of Code as its biggest participating organization. Fifty-nine out of mind-boggling sixty projects have been completed successfully. Lots of new things have been learned, lots of code has been written and fun has been had. GSOC is over but the code has not gone away and the work is not finished. Over the next months, many of the students will continue to be part of KDE, integrate the code for future releases, improve it, maintain it, become more part of KDE. For now, however, pencils are down and we can congratulate the students: it was a great summer and we enjoyed having you around! <h2>Lots of variety</h2> Many different KDE projects have been involved in Google Summer of Code 2012, including core libraries (kdelibs), accessibility, education, games, graphics, multimedia and PIM. Prominent KDE projects that are shipped independently from the KDE SC have also taken part, such as Amarok, the music player; Calligra, the office suite; Choqok, the microblogging client; Gluon, the game engine and KDevelop, the IDE. The projects undertaken by students varied from under-the-hood code tweaking to reimplementing parts of the software using new technologies like QtQuick and QML or to improve the user interface. Not every success will be noticed by our users immediately: some of the projects focused on performance optimization, some will only prove fruitful in the future. Of course, to our developers and mentors every project and every effort was very dear and precious! <h2>Thank you, great meeting you - and don't be strangers!</h2> We would like to thank Google for this opportunity, congratulate our students once more for their success, and invite them to stay with us. Keep hacking on KDE, keep learning and maybe participate again in Google Summer of Code next year, as students or even as mentors, helping others get as much as possible out of the experience! http://img.hades.name/gsoc-kde-screenshot-1.png http://img.hades.name/gsoc-kde-screenshot-2.png http://img.hades.name/gsoc-kde-screenshot-3.png http://img.hades.name/gsoc-kde-screenshot-4.jpeg http://img.hades.name/gsoc-kde-screenshot-5.png http://img.hades.name/gsoc-kde-screenshot-6.png
