发表者：开源项目经理 Leslie Hawthorn 我们举办
谷歌暑期编程大赛（Google Summer of Code）希望通过这个活动引导更多的高校学生参与开源软件的开发。现在，新一届的谷歌暑期编程大赛正在如火如荼地进行。在过去的 4 年里，近 2500 名学生在超过 2500 名来自软件行业和学术领域的导师带领下顺利从这个项目“毕业”，其结果显而易见：数百万行代码由此产生，投入开源项目的资金超过了 1500 万美元。今年，同学们在提交申请时，有超过
150 个开源软件技术相关的项目可供选择，这些项目包含了从操作系统到比赛管理系统的不同类别。
2008 年的活动，我们收集了 975 份有效作品，每个参与者收到了 4500 美元的奖学金和一件超酷的 T 恤。令我们感到尤其兴奋的是，学生们在比赛开展过程中建立了社会关系 — 超过 98 个国家的同学参与了谷歌暑期编程大赛，希望今年有更多地方的朋友参与到我们的活动中来。
我们从现在开始接受学生报名，截止日期到 4 月 3 日的午夜 12 点（太平洋标准时间）。预了解更多信息，请查看我们的

Guide students to develop software
Posted by: Kaiyuan's project manager Leslie Hawthorn
We hold the Google Summer of Code and hope that we can guide more and more college students to participate in the development of the Kaiyuan Software.Now the new Google Summer of Code is in full swing.In the past four years,nealy 2500 students have successfully “graduate” from the project under the guidances of their teachers from software industry and academic fields.The achievements are evident : millions of lines of codes have been brought about,and the investment to Kaiyuan projects has amounted to more than 15 million dollars.This year, there are over 150 technology-related projects of Kaiyuan software for students to choose when they submit an application.These projects include different categories from operating system to competition managing system.
In the competition of 2008, we had collected 975 pieces of effective works.Every participant had received a scholarship of 4500 dollars and a cool T-shirt And what excited us so much was that the students had established a social relationship during the competition — Students from more than 98 countries had taken part in the Google Summer of Code.We hope this year we can have more students from more regions to participate in our activities.
Students can signed up to this year’s competition now, and the deadline of the registration is the midnight of 3rd April(Pacific Standard Time).You can go through our FAQ or you can log on to our discussion to get more information.
