Hi list, We are very sad that Boost didn't make it into GSoC this year. However, for students with enthusiasm for C++, Parallelism and Concurrency and looking for an interesting project for this summer, there are other opportunities. The STE||AR-Group (https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/5183170693562368/) is looking for prospective students, we have a large variety of projects surrounding the HPX Parallel Runtime System (one of the reference implementations of the upcoming additions to the C++17 standard for parallelism and concurrency). You can find our project ideas list here: https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx/wiki/GSoC-2016-Project-Ideas In addition, if you have a project idea you'd like to mentor that would fit into the scope of our organisation, we would be more than happy to welcome you! We are looking forward to your responses at hpx-users@stellar.cct.lsu.edu or on our IRC channel #ste||ar on Freenode!
