Re: There's a sort of bias

My vision is that kde and google have A LOT of gsoc projects. Who cares about numbers ? Everyone wins !

Maybe in the future, when kde apps will be completely cross-platform, google will change his mind about how to classify mentoring organization. Most of the projects you are talking about ("KWord, Karbon14, KMyMoney or Kopete") are mostly used by linux kde users. I think this cannot be said about gaim or inkscape for example (lots of Win32 or xfce users).

That being said, I'm not really sure being an independant organization guarantee more gsoc projects... so please stop "spitting in the soup" (like we say in France)

That's a good one. In the US, we say "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth."

Right, we don't like party-poopers. Aren't languages wonderful!
