Hi Smalltalkers!
Maybe you are not aware of what our selection to this year GSoC really means for the Smalltalk community. And I wasn't aware completely until few hours. Just to give you an example, even such big organizations like Ruby or PHP where not selected. From this viewpoint you can see what we have achieved. Some people said and still says that Smalltalk is old and that it is dead. Ok, we have been selected by the major Informatics and Software company all over the world. The point is that ESUG and the Smalltalk community was selected because of the seriousness mixed with passion of all the application, project and ideas. We have an incredible high quality list of ideas and mentors. We have a unique opportunity to show the rest of the world why we love Smalltalk, why it is much better than other alternatives, etc. So, we invite all of you to make this happens. Thanks to everybody for all the congratulations and nice words!!!

This is great!
I read that Google also prioritized organizations that had not participated before, in order to give them more visibility to the whole programmers community. So this is a big opportunity gain popularity :) Congratulations!
