However, +working on one of these projects is still a good opportunity to get started with Hurd development. +Please read up about [[contributing]] in general; +and feel free to ask any questions you might have at one of our [[regular_IRC_meetings|IRC#regular_meetings]]. +Generally it's a good idea to [[contact_us|communication]] when starting to work on some project. + +# History + +In 2006 and [[2007]], we participated in GSoC under the umbrella of the GNU +project, +getting one slot each year. + +In the following year, we successfully participated on our own, not only as a +suborganization of the GNU +project. Read about our five students' success on the [[2008]] page. + +The next year, we participated under the GNU umbrella with one slot again. +Read about it on the [[2009]] page. |
