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 just 7 orgs which have participated every year since the program began,
and we're quite excited for our twelfth year!

Previous SoC students helped create the Nmap Scripting Engine, Zenmap GUI,
and the handy Ncat, Nping, and Ndiff utilities.  Several of them became top
developers and some even transitioned to mentoring new students
themselves!  We're hoping for continued success 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:

https://nmap.org/soc/

Google just announced our participation today, so potential students can
start looking over our ideas page and deciding what interests them the most
or they can even come up with their own ideas. They should also look at the
other projects accepted into the program (
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/?sp-page=4) as students
can submit up to five applications to increase their chances.

Applications can be submitted starting March 14 at 19:00 UTC.  At that
time, an "apply" button will appear on the Nmap org profile page:

https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/5426246414499840/

Applications can only be accepted until March 25 19:00 UTC. We're
absolutely forbidden from accepting any late applications.  I can't wait to
see what we can create this summer!

-Fyodor
