Folks:

Google has announced their Summer of Code 2010 sponsorships. Four
students have been awarded a sponsorship to hack on Tahoe-LAFS this
summer:

Kevan Carstensen: Implement MDMF files
Josip Lisec: Cloud App - Music Player
Yu Xue: One-Hundred-Year Cryptography
M O Faruque Sarker: A Publish/Subscribe Style Decentralized Introduction

Hopefully by August of this year we will have four great new
improvements to Tahoe-LAFS!

Congratulations to these students. Thank you to these students, to the
mentors who have volunteered to help them, to Google for sponsoring
and organizing the Google Summer of Code, and also thank you to the
many other students who applied to hack on Tahoe-LAFS this summer but
were not awarded sponsorships.
