Re: [boost] [gsoc16] Boost rejected as GSoC 2016 org

IIRC last year Mozilla and the Linux Foundation were rejected. There's really nothing jaw dropping or outrageous about it. For a small org two slots can make a huge difference, for larger orgs not being accepted will generally not endanger the project itself. Google is simply trying to put the money where it has the biggest impact. I think that's a good thing. Cheers -Andreas On 07:46 Tue 01 Mar , Vinícius dos Santos Oliveira wrote:

Strange argument because Apache, Debian, Fedora, Gnome, GNU, KDE, LibreOffice, Mozilla, Python, R, X, etc.... They all have been accepted !

They have been accepted **this** year. Did this happened every year? Maybe last year one of them was in the place where Boost is now. Or maybe they'll be in this place next year.
