Unfortunately, we were not selected as one of the
mentoring orgs in GSoC this year. I'm going to try
and make the meeting for rejected orgs on Friday
(I'll be traveling, but should be able to make it)
and will hopefully get some insight into why then.
I'll report back any interesting findings.

If you're a student who'd been hoping to work with
us in GSoC, I'd point out that there's no real reason
to wait on that program - we're always happy to
have new folks interested and contributing. Feel
free the reach out if you want pointers on getting
started. And if you're set on GSoC for the summer,
you should absolutely check out the other 137
participating orgs:

Thanks to everyone who contributed ideas or gave
feedback during the process.
Anthony
