No luck @ GSOC, but No good bye to LimeSurvey!!! April 21, 2009

I prepared a proposal with the assistance of the probable mentor of the project idea for Limesurvey for this year’s GSOC. Limesurvey has applied for 5 slots from Google. But they have only agreed to grant for 3 slots. According to my mentor, I was placed 5th of the received eligible 44 proposals when they ranked them. So I’m not lucky enough to get through.
But this is not the end of the world. I tried … I came close and this is only my first attempt. Sadly I won’t be able to apply for GSOC next year as I’m finishing my undergrad studies this year. Nevertheless, I’m not giving up on my desire to contribute to opensource. Eventhough I’m not selected for GSOC, I’m going to implement my project idea for Limesurvey. Its not money I went after, its the pride and satisfaction. So still I can achieve my major goal. Everything happens for the best!!!
you have got the great spirit of open source…
good luck with your efforts…!
