<title>Funded Student Projects Announced</title>
<p>The FreeBSD Project received over 120 applications for <a
href="http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html">Google's
Summer of Code</a> program, amongst which 14 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.html">here</a>. A <a
href="http://wikitest.freebsd.org/moin.cgi/SummerOfCode2006">Summer of Code wiki</a> is also available with additional information.</p>
