Hi guys!
Google Summer of Code (GSC) is approaching and we need to apply of course. Big question is, how. As one, as three, as ten applicants?
I would rather not divide us too much for GSC so I propose to go as one, but how? Because an organization/project needs to apply, not the consortion of organizations ... Or there is maybe an exception?

Hello everyone,
Many of you were wondering if Google Summer of Code 2010 is on for 2010 and the answer is yes! We will begin accepting application from would-be mentoring organizations beginning March 8th at approximately 19:00 UTC, with applications closing on March 12th at 23:00 UTC. Students can apply between 19:00 UTC on March 29th to 19:00 UTC on April 9th.
We will be updating the program website [0], including the FAQs [1], over the next few days. Not much is going to change except the timeline, though there are a few FAQs that will be added. If you have any questions in the interim please do send them to the list. Please note that questions about which project you should select, etc., will likely be responded to with "depends on your skill set," so please take the time to do some research [2] about which project is right for you.
While mentoring organizations for 2010 will be announced until March 18th, a great number of the projects that have participated in the past [3] will return once again in 2010. Of course, that's not a guarantee and we cannot accept every great project that applies. But if you want to get a jump start on your participation in GSoC 2010, considering lurking in the IRC channel of a past participating project and seeing what useful things you can learn about their code base and community. Check out project forums to see if it's a place you'd like to spend your time.
I'll be sending a follow up message in a few minutes about what to expect in the next few days/weeks and how you can help Google Summer of Code 2010.
Google Summer of Code 2010 is on! Celebrate!

How about going under the hood of ESUG? It looks like an entity, which can cover all existing squeak forks without any tensions.

Hi:
Below is the email reply I got from Leslie Hawthorn to my query. So a Smalltalk Group of some sort will be good for everyone. They had turned down Squeak's application last year because they wanted to support projects with more critical mass.
All the best, Aik-Siong Koh

Hi Askoh,
Yes, I think that would be most welcome. Please do apply again. The org application questions are in the FAQ from 2009 and will not change much for 2010 if that helps you prepare.
Best, LH

Instead of just Squeak Smalltalk, would the Smalltalk Group have better chance of being accepted in GSOC 2010.

If so, we will apply again.
Thanks,
Aik-Siong Koh
Hi Aik-Siong ,
Thanks fot that inquiry, so applying under ESUG umbrella is therefore doable. GNU Smalltalkers and Pharoers are already for. So, I suggest for Squeakers to join too!
Best regards Janko
