-The Google Summer of Code is currently in the planning phase.
+The GNU Hurd project this year unfortunately is not in the list of accepted
+mentoring organizations.
+
+However, don't despair!  This doesn't mean that you'd not be allowed to work on
+your favorite GNU Hurd project.  For one, there's the possibility that a slot
+for your project can be allocated under the [auspices of the GNU
+project](http://www.gnu.org/software/soc-projects/).  Second, we're of course
+always open to introducing newcomers to the world of the GNU Hurd outside of
+any Google Summer of whatever project.  Just pick a task from the list pointed
+to below on this page and get in touch with us!
