+	  <title>Funded Summer of Code Projects Announced</title>
+
+	  <p>The FreeBSD Project received over 100 applications for <a
+	    href="http://code.google.com/soc">Google's
+	    Summer of Code</a> program, amongst which 21 were selected
+	    for funding. Unfortunately, there were far more first rate
+	    applications than available spots for students.  However,
+	    we encourage students to work together with us all year
+	    round.  The FreeBSD Project is always willing to help
+	    mentor students learn more about operating system
+	    development through our normal community mailing lists and
+	    development forums.  Contributing to an open source
+	    software project is a valuable component of a computer
+	    science education and great preparation for a career in
+	    software development.</p>
+
+	  <p>A complete list of the winning students and projects is
+	    available <a
+	    href="http://www.freebsd.org/projects/summerofcode-2008.html">here</a>.
+	    A <a
+	    href="http://wiki.FreeBSD.org/SummerOfCode2008">Summer of
+	    Code wiki</a> has been created and additional information
+	    about the projects will be added there soon.</p>
