  OpenNMS is a Part of Google’s Summer of Code!

Thanks to OGP <http://www.opennms.org/wiki/OGP> members Mike Huot and
Matt Raykowski for administering our Summer of Code submissions, and to
all of the folks who have offered to be mentors, we are now officially
accepted into Google Summer of Code 2011!

We look forward to working with any potential students about the ideas
list found at:

http://www.opennms.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2011#Ideas_List

We would also be glad to talk to potential students about their own
ideas. The list is pretty limited, but there are a lot of things that
could be done to improve OpenNMS. Please sign up for the opennms-gsoc
mailing list to discuss these ideas:

https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opennms-gsoc

If people in the community know of students that are eligible for GSoC,
you might encourage them to apply. We would prefer students who are
familiar with OpenNMS. Also if you see questions from students, please
be kind, they are still learning about the community and OpenNMS.

Thanks and good luck to potential students!
