Hello,

Google has extended the student applications period for this year's
Summer of Code until April 7th, 2008.  This means, it's not too late to
submit your proposal.  With the extra days, you still have time to get
in touch with a mentor, to discuss your proposal on one of our mailing
lists and to solicit feedback before refining and submitting it.

Let me also take this as an occasion to remind everybody that we also
welcome students' proposals that are not explicitly listed on our
projects page.  If you have a great idea on how to make NetBSD better,
just flesh out your thoughts and hand in your application.

Due to the strong competition in the Summer of Code program, you may
even wish to submit a second proposal;  often we receive multiple
proposals for the same project and have a hard time choosing one student
over the other -- a second proposal of equal quality might increase your
chances to be accepted.

If you have any questions, please contact the appropriate mailing list
or see if some of your possible mentors are available on #netbsd-code on
IRC (freenode.net).

- -Jan
