Google has announced that the Summer of Code programme will be running  
again this year.  If haskell.org people would like to take part again  
this year, then we need volunteers:

First,
     * suggestions for suitable projects
           (in the past this was organised using a reddit)
     * an administrator to co-ordinate the application to Google
           (I have done it for the last three years but am very willing
            to hand on to someone else)

Google will accept applications from organisations in the period 8th -  
12th March 2010, approx 1900UTC.

If haskell.org is accepted again, students can apply between 29th  
March - 9th April.
More volunteers will be required:

     * to review student applications and choose which to accept
     * to supervise the accepted students

Both of these roles are called "mentor" in the Google system.  Putting  
together a good team of mentors before applying as an organisation is  
helpful towards us being accepted into the programme.

Regards,
     Malcolm
