We are just wrapping up our summer program with them, which coincided with Google Summer of Code and I think the work accomplished by Prachi, our Outreachy intern, was very good [2]. But it came at a price ($6500), which was essential a wash, since we got $7000 from Google for our participation in GCI. (I expect ~$4500 from the GSoC 2017 program).
