Hi all,

As you might have read in the news [1], openSUSE is welcoming 16 students for the Google Summer of Code this year. This is truly exciting both because of the projecs themselves, but also because this is great opportunity to work with new people! You can see the list of projects that were accepted at the end of this mail or go read the news.opensuse.org post [1].

In the next few days, students will introduce themselves and their project on this list, so make sure to be nice to them and to not scare them away ;-) We all want to create a positive environment for our students to successfully complete their project, after all :-)

Please heartily welcome our students!

Vincent
