The Mozilla list of Google Summer of Code projects for 2009 was recently published. Apologies to anyone who didn’t make it – we had many excellent applications this year, and are in fact pursuing the direct funding of some which were just off the list. The projects are:
- nsIProcess2: A new interface to support piping in Mozilla (calling external programs)
- Integrate some or all of Greasemonkey, Stylish, Bespin, Google Gadgets, Webchunks and IE8 Accelerators into Ubiquity
- Message Filter UI Overhaul for SeaMonkey and Thunderbird
- Updating Camino’s Address Bar (autocomplete, AwesomeBar function)
- Improving the Register Allocator of TraceMonkey
- HTC “click wheel” integration into Fennec
- Transferring web pages over rsync (or other delta protocol)
- Improve IT’s GeoDNS infrastructure with resource weighting
- Implement new EcmaScript 3.1 features in Rhino
- Automated Duplicate Detection for Bugzilla
I’m really looking forward to seeing what the students achieve this year :-)
Congratulations to all the selected students :)
