Re: [myhdl-list] myhdl at GSOC 2012

[Sébastien B. <seb...@mi...>]

I would love to be wrong, but I consider GSoC to be a mere waste of time:
* lots of paperwork and boring questions to answer.
* high chance of rejection (and even after you've spent so much time 
filling in their crap, all you get is an automated message).
* especially since I believe most GSoC curators have not touched HDLs 
and never will.
* mediocre quality code often gets written.
* keeping students in the project after GSoC ends is difficult.

Just my personal opinion. I got Milkymist rejected twice and mentored 
one project, and now I do not want to hear about GSoC again.
