Re: [Mixxx-devel] making GSoC better for Mixxx

[Thorsten M. <tho...@sy...>]

Do I understand it right? The students are behind the money they may get 
from Google and not after the knowledge they gain solving a specific 
project?

I never studied, but always wanted to. Meanwhile I am in a good position 
w/o an exam and having not enough time/mood to contribute.

Really sad to read that.


Cheers
Thorsten
