KevSo, I think we need to officially wrap up the 'maybe we'll do GSoC' thing. What do people think?
bear+1
KevThe only two mails of people interested in GSoC have gone completely unanswered, and we have only one project proposal - and I don't think that's a suitable one (creating a new project instead of contributing to an existing one).
bearthe only pushback would be me pointing out that pyconand ietf is happening so those who might be interested may be distracted..
KevHow many weeks have those been happening for? :)
bear:P
beari'll send a last call notice to members@
KevI wouldn't bother.

KevThat statement was only what it said :)
KevI wouldn't bother - you can if you want.
bearyep, was already typing the email
KevMy problem is that needing to cajole people to this extent needs to continue for quite some time.
KevSo if no-one's driving projects enough at the moment to get ideas, no-one's going to be putting in the cat herding time for the rest of GSoC.
bearyep, that I completely agree with
KevAnd I've always found that's the most time consuming part, outside of the 'teaser tasks' weeks at the start.
