GSoC :: application rejected

[Pierre Schweitzer]

Dear all,

The ReactOS Foundation application to GSoC has been rejected this year
again. Statistics are not reliable after all.

In any case, keep up the good work. We don't need Google to be the bests
at what we do.

Cheers,

We've been yet again rejected for the same "reasons" as before (i.e. no
apparent reasons)?

Cheers,
Hermès.

I would imagine the reason has something to do with a conflict of interest

A posible reason: google fears ReactOS.

Could it be?

The ReactOS Foundation application got officially rejected "because of
the numbers of slots available and the high # of terrific applications."

Its probably on the lines of 'you have no users, don't plan to have any
users, and the last time you were in SOC nothing came of it' :P.

[David Quintana (gigaherz)]

There is no need to believe that Google hates us. As a company, they must
have a preference: any project that may benefit their business, is a better
choice than a project that doesn't affect them or affects them negatively.
As ReactOS is right now, we are still very easily ignorable. A toy and not
a threat. Chances are they simply had more interesting projects higher up
in their list than ours.

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

And let's finally notice that this year GSoC get cut budget on third or
more and didn't include this year even Firefox & Mozilla, so I personally
was not been surprised.
