+1
Moreover a lack of respect for the ones who worked hard completing theirs.
About students who were accepted last year, repeating students etc etc.
there was a discussion at the Google Mentors maillist.
Although there might be no official statement from Google, the given message
is:
** Do not accept students just popping in in Summer. **
1.- If they were not accepted, they had a whole year to try get involved,
and demostrate they are/were a good candidate.
2.- If they were accepted, they are suposed to keep in somehow after SoC(a
bit documentation if not feeling to code maybe?), as this is SoC target,
increase the development power base... help opensource.
