To clarify:
Yes, participation in GSoC is governed by US financial
regulations which restrict individuals (students or mentors)
from certain countries, including Cuba and Iran (and a few
others I can't think of off the top of my head, but it's a
very short list).

While I believe this comes from US financial restrictions,
refusing the payment doesn't change anything from
Google's perspective. Individuals from those countries
may not participate under the GSoC umbrella.

We are, of course, under no such restrictions as a project
just because we participate in GSoC. I'd love to see the
output of this project, or that from any other individuals in
any of the countries Google can't work with.
Anthony
