[OSGeo-Discuss] Preparation of ideas pages for GSoC 2015 (deadline: 18th February!)

[Daniel Morissette]

Hi Margherita,

Where are the OSGeo GSoC pages for 2015? In past years, they used to be 
in the wiki, and that's where projects used to go to link their ideas 
page, but I can't find any page for GSoC 2015 in the wiki. Has this 
information moved to somewhere else?

See the set of "Google Summer of Code 2014 *" pages listed at 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Google_Summer_of_Code

What is the plan for this year to collect the ideas?

Thanks

Daniel
