Nmap Project Seeking Talented Programmers for Google Summer of Code--Last Day to Apply!

[Fyodor <fyodor () nmap org>]

Hi folks.  I'm delighted to report that Nmap has been accepted by Google to
participate in this year's Summer of Code internship program.  This
innovative and extraordinarily generous program provides $5,500 stipends to
college and graduate students anywhere in the world who spend the summer
improving Nmap from home! They gain valuable experience, get paid,
strengthen their résumés, and write code for millions of users.  We're one
of the few orgs which have participated every year since the program began,
and we're quite excited for our tenth year!

Unfortunately I've been slow with communication and the APPLICATION PERIOD
ENDS TOMORROW (FRIDAY) at 19:00 UTC.  So if you are interested, or know
someone who might be, please get those applications in now!  We can work
with you to improve an imperfect application, but we're absolutely
forbidden from accepting anyone who doesn't submit something by tomorrow's
deadline.

Previous SoC students helped create the Nmap Scripting Engine, Zenmap GUI,
and the handy Ncat and Nping utilities.  Several of them became top
developers!  We're hoping for the same this year, but we need your help to
get the word out! If you know any college/grad students (or are one) who
might be interested, please point them to our project ideas page:

Cheers,
Fyodor
