<div>Thank you to all of the students and mentors that have invested their time in assisting Sugar Labs through the GSoC application process. Contratulations to the successful students! As you will have inferred from my previous emails, this year's applications were of a very high calibre.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you were unsuccessful, we would still love your contributions! There were several applications that we regretfully needed to turn down that would be excellent additions to Sugar.</div>
