GSoC slots

GSoC slots

Hello,

I’m sorry to announce that Guix will probably not have a GSoC slot.
This is largely my fault: GNU had to give Google a number of slots by
yesterday noon, and all this happened while I was away (see
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/summer-of-code/2013-05/msg00002.html>
and <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/summer-of-code/2013-05/msg00028.html>.)

If Google grants more slots than the minimum GNU asked for, then I’ll
negotiate with the rest of GNU to see if we can get one.

Ludo’.

Still, there is a chance.

There are 32 slots [1].  These include the desired ones [2] too.  I
guess it should be possible to convince other projects to share.

Note that mentors must register on the website and provide their contact
details [2].  Please do it as soon as possible.

Great.  Although I may not participate, I wish Guix successfully obtain
slots!

Thanks for the heads-up, I just emailed summer-of-code@ to see if we
could find a solution.
