Excellent news: wxWidgets has been accepted to participate in Google Summer of Code 2009 again! Congratulations to the other 149 accepted organizations but I'm especially glad about this one :-) I admit that I was rather worried about it as we already were lucky enough to be part of GSoC during the last 3 years and it was mentioned that some previously selected organizations couldn't be accepted this year to make place for new ones. But all is well that ends well.
Now we need to attract enough good students applications before the April 3 deadline to be able to choose the best ones of them. And while we also have a list of proposed projects we also are always looking for more so please update the Wiki page or post to our mailing lists if you think you have an interesting idea.
So if you are a wxWidgets user or a user of any wxWidgets application please tell any students around you about the possibility to work on wxWidgets during this summer. And, of course, if you are a student yourself, consider applying!

That's great to hear !
Why don't you add a wxSymbian port to the list of projects?? I think it is and it will be really important...
Thanks.

It's not realistic to expect a student to write a new port (especially a rather particular one like wxSymbian) in 2 months. We would be very interested to have this port but it's not a suitable GSoC task.
