Re: [ros-dev] GSoC :: application rejected

[Aleksey Bragin]

Let's be honest to ourselves: that's a typical,very polite, frustration 
preventing way to say that they did not choose us for participation for 
whatever reasons they had.

It's their right, it's their wish to actually make Google Summer of Code 
happen, so I just want to thank them for helping other open source projects.

To be fair, there are many interesting, prominent projects which were 
selected:
Wine, Mono, Google Kubernetes, LibreOffice, MariaDB, to name just a few.
BSDs got support too: FreeBSD, OpenBSD, but not NetBSD.

Regards,
Aleksey Bragin
