Thousand Parsec Google Summer of Code Allocations

As everyone who has been participating in the Google Summer of Code (http://code.google.com/soc) knows, Google released the allocation on the 11th of April. Thousand Parsec was allocated 3 slots, which means we will have 3 students working almost full time on the project over the summer!

Selecting the proposals was very hard, we had 51 proposals and most where of a very high quality. Give unlimited resources we would probably have funded half of them.

We would very much like to thank Google's Open Source Labs for effectively spending $US 15,000 on our little project.

The projects the students will partake in are:
* Reach for the Stars ruleset for the C++ Server - href="http://code.google.com/soc/parsec/appinfo.html?csaid=8EFC02A014D712EF
* A Web Client - http://code.google.com/soc/parsec/appinfo.html?csaid=3DCC4FD99D3D97D3
* Ruleset Development Environment - http://code.google.com/soc/parsec/appinfo.html?csaid=450330A2492DDC71
