Hi,

I spoke to a teacher from a local university last week, mainly as we
were looking for a place where a local PUG could meet regularly. I
realized this could be a good opportunity to head-hunt some students to
participate in this GSoC. Are we still interested in new students?

I've never been involved in GSoC before, so I'm not quite sure how all
this works. Should the student choose a project idea from the wiki,
contact one of the mentors, write to pgsql-students or how is that
supposed to work?

I've noticed the student application deadline is April 8, so it would be
a bit rush, I guess. Is that worth a try?

regards
Tomas
