+      <p>As in all previous editions of the Google Summer of Code, &os;
+	was an accepted organization, and we had the chance to mentor 15
+	projects.  Huge thanks to all our mentors for keeping the high
+	quality standards that make our community shine.</p>
+
+      <p>This year was rather unique in that we accepted for the first
+	time well-known members of the community that are not src
+	committers to co-mentor.  We also accepted projects that have
+	a different upstream than &os;.  Both are clear signs that &os; is
+	growing and adapting to the wider community.</p>
+
+      <p>This year we are also had administrative issues with Perforce
+	and have accepted officially the use of external repositories, in
+	particular github, as requested by students.</p>
+
+      <p>12 of 15 projects were successful, which we think is an
+	excellent result for a Google Summer of Code.</p>
