OpenStreetMap on Google Summer Of Code

OpenStreetMap has been accepted as an “organisation” for Google Summer of Code 2008. This means that Google will potentially be funding students to work on open source projects to do with OpenStreetMap.

The notice on OpenGeoData reads:

We’ve been selected to mentor students this year. We have about six potential mentors so far, and now we need some students. If you are a student, or teach students, or know either teachers or students, and think they’d be good match for OpenStreetMap in the Summer of Code, encourage them to look through our projects, get in touch with us, and apply next week.
