Thank you to everyone that worked on the proposals and application. This is awesome and you all are awesome! Now to get started on my own application...

This was posted on the GSoC site for almost 6 hours when I posted it here and there was no announcement yet. Forgive me if I was overly excited.

No worries at all.  I was out skiing yesterday and when I got home my internet connection was down, so I couldn't check/post anything.  I am always happy when others do my work for me :o)

I guess the real work begins now!

Thanks to all who have contributed ideas.

Cheers,

Craig

Craig, you should be really proud - this is a great accomplishment. -- Andrei Agree. Craig did a great job. BTW. It is also good news in terms of marketing. The D foundation logo looks awesome along other cool projects. Piotrek

Nice to see we got in, and hopefully we can make some positive strides for D out of this.
