<p>The FreeBSD Project is proud to have taken part in the Google <a

again in
2006. By all accounts, the FreeBSD participation in this
again in 2006. By all accounts, the FreeBSD participation in this
program was an unqualified success. We received over 150
applications for student projects, amongst which 13 were selected
applications for student projects, amongst which 14 were selected
for funding. These student projects included security research,
improved installation tools, new utilities, and more. Many of
the students have continued working on their FreeBSD projects even
after the official close of the program. We are happy to see
continued development in our source code repository by these
improved installation tools, new utilities, and more. Many of the
students have continued working on their FreeBSD projects even after
the official close of the program.</p>
<p>We are happy to report than all 14 of our students this year
successfully completed the program. There were many other strong
applications which we unfortunately couldn't fund and many of these
students also spent the summer working on FreeBSD. We are happy to
see continued development in our source code repository by these
talented young programmers and we look forward to working with more
students in the future.</p>
