Re: Have people started working on any Google Summer of code 2007 project?

Reference:
From: "ajay gopalakrishnan" <geek.dwells@xxxxxxxxx>

Is FreeBSD restricting non-students from not taking up any project that is
'suitable for summer of code'?
For eg.
I was planning to take up the 'super tunnel daemon' project some time back.
I had done some initial work but now i find that it has also been marked as
'Suitable for summer of code'. I am no longer a student. I am working
currently at a firm. So i dont think that i will be eligible for the summer
of code. Can i still take up the project or am i forced to take up those
that are not marked as 'suitable for summer of code'?
Also, if someone has taken a summer of code project can no-one else take it
up as a normal project to contribute to FreeBSD ?

Awaiting a reply,
Ajay.

As I'm on To: line. (Though I have no special status other than
being last poster), to ensure you get some reply, My 2c. :

No can stop anyone working; Be a shame though if 2 people work &
one's effort was not used. I suppose as SoC deadline was yesterday
it'll take a while for google to publish their sponsoring list.

If 2 people develope same thing: whose code will be commited will
I suppose be decided on which arrives first &/or seems best code,
hopefully independent of status of author eg student V. independent.

End of non authoritative 2 cents worth :-)
