[GSoC 2014] Welcome to our GSoC students -- Perfect 10 !

[Haïkel Guémar]

Hi,

Google just published the list of the accepted GSoC proposals:
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/projects/list/google/gsoc2014

We -the GSoC SIG- had a hard time to trim the list of proposals down to 
10 slots and we're very pleased to see that all of them got accepted !
Thanks to my co-administrators: Buddhike (bckukera), Kushal (kushaldas), 
the mentors: Emily, Kaushal (kshlm), Mikolaj (mizdebsk),Pierre-Yves 
(pingou), Ratnadeep (rtntpro),  Stanislas (sochotny), Vit Ondruch
who did a great job reviewing and selecting the projects.
It was a pleasure to work with you guys, this is YOUR success :o)

And of course, congratulations to the students which will work with us 
within fedoraproject.org during that time (and hopefully, after ;) )

Selected projects:
* isitfedoraruby: improvements to isitfedoraruby a RoR application used 
by the Ruby SIG to track the packaging of Ruby gems
* shumgrepper: a web frontend to summershum a project that collects 
checksum of every file present in every packages bringing many 
possibilities to check integrity, duplication of sources files etc.
* infrastructure to the FreeMedia: FreeMedia has provided fedora media 
to individuals who can't afford buying or downloading Fedora, this 
project aims to automate a currently manual process.
* Fedora College: bringing a virtual classroom for new Fedora contributors
* Implementation of logs browser and audio/video conferencing in Waarta: 
Waarta is an irc web client written in node.js providing an enhanced 
user experience.
* UI for bugspad: bugspad is a rewrite of Bugzilla with speed and 
performance in mind.
* Mock improvements: enhancements to speed up mock and make it more flexible
* Backend improvements to GlitterGallery: Glitter Gallery is a tool used 
by the Fedora Design Team, it's kinda github for designers :)
* UX improvements to GlitterGallery
* GlusterFS-iostat: since GlusterFS wasn't a mentoring organization this 
year and this proposal was rock-solid, we shared a slot with them. It 
will be an useful addition to the storage offer within Fedora.

Ladies, gentlemen, it's time to roll up your sleeves and get some work 
done ;)

best regards,
H.
