Subject: Ruby Central rejected as a Google Summer of Code organization

Hi all --

I think many of you know this already but I just wanted to confirm it.

The Google Summer of Code program has rejected Ruby Central this year as 
a mentoring organization, a role we've played every year since 2006. No 
explanation for the rejection was offered. (When I pressed for an 
explanation, I got a courteous response but no substantive information 
about their decision.)

I find this very disappointing, and I'm sorry to have to bring the news 
to those of you who had started to give serious thought to Summer of 
Code projects.


David
