===== Google Summer of Code =====

The gEDA project has participated in the Google Summer of Code.

Here are archived instructions and ideas from previous years:
[[:gsoc2007|2007]], [[:gsoc2008|2008]], [[:gsoc2009|2009]], [[:gsoc2010|2010]]
(gEDA did not participate in 2009 and 2010).

Through our experience, we have [[:best_practices|learned a couple of things]] about running a successful program.
