[OLPC-GSoC] Working On Project

[Samuel Klein]

Hello, Abhishek!  Replying to this and a few previous posts:

1. Every student who had an assigned mentor should be in touch with that
mentor to discuss how you may need to update your milestones and timelines,
with an eye towards having something to show at the end of August (when we
hope to showcase all of this work).
    Many great projects did not have mentors assigned; if you would like a
mentor and did not get one, please post here and ask!  We do have mentors
without students.

2. For everyone who proposed a project, please follow the link on the page
for our contributors program:
   http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Contributors_program

Be sure to provide your shipping address, a phone number (which we need for
shipping), and  a link to your project and a note that this was a SoC
proposal.

I will be posting the list of the top 30 or so projects which we are
automatically accepting into the contributors program; the others will be
accepted on a case by case basis, as we accept all new proposals.

Regards,
  SJ
