the [Google Summer of Code
2008](http://code.google.com/soc/2008/hurd/about.html)!
-If you are a student interested in participating (or just curious), see our
-list of [[project_ideas]]. Suggestions for other interesting projects are
-welcome too, of course, so don't hesitate to come up with your own proposals!
-(You're, however, very much encouraged to [[discuss|communication]] them with
-us prior to submitting.)
-
-The student application period starts Monday, 2008-03-24 and lasts until
-Monday, 2008-04-07 (has been
-[extended](http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-announce/browse_thread/thread/9fa88f31aa401f70)).

-You might want to take a
-look at the draft for the [[application_template|student_application_form]] to
-see what is awaiting you. As well, you're encouraged to carefully read through
-the [GNU guidelines for Summer of Code
-projects](http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/guidelines.html) before
-writing and handing in your application. (But keep in mind that these are for
-a different mentoring organization, so not everything described there applies
-to us...) And again: [[ask|communication]] if there are questions.
-
-Also, if none of the GNU Hurd project proposals appeals to you, feel
-invited to have a look at the [GNU-wide
-list](http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/ideas.html).
+Student selection is over, and we have four slots -- quite some more than the
+one we had the previous years under the GNU umbrella... Let's hope for some
+good results :-)
+
+The community bonding period has begun now, and lasts till the summer session
+starts by the end of May. Students are now preparing their projects, getting to
+know the stuff they will work on, as well as... us, the Hurd community :-)
