<p>Boost has participated in the Google Summer of Code program
|
|
for a decade and is very grateful for Google's generous past
|
|
support. This program allows college students to have a paid
|
|
summer internship working on open source projects, giving them
|
|
an interesting alternative to summer onsite internships.
|
|
Because the students that work on Boost libraries tend to stay
|
|
with the same libraries summer after summer, the continuity of
|
|
this program is important to Boost and to the students that
|
|
work on Boost projects.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Boost has traditionally been a model GSoC participant
|
|
receiving a more than average slot allocation, so we were
|
|
caught by surprise when Google rejected our 2016 application.
|
|
They asked us to apply again next year but to sit out 2016 to give open-source projects which don't normally get awarded
|
|
an opportunity. We understand this rationale, but this policy
|
|
would mean no summer internships for Boost and leave students
|
|
that have been working on Boost libraries looking for other
|
|
alternatives for the summer of 2016.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>When <a href="http://www.imc.com/">IMC Financial Markets</a>
|
|
learned about this situation, they saw it as an opportunity to
|
|
support the Boost community and demonstrate their commitment to
|
|
student development and open source.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>IMC worked with Boost to create its own "Boost Summer of
|
|
Code" program, deliberately patterned after Google's program.
|
|
IMC also stepped up to underwrite all the costs of this program
|
|
for the summer of 2016.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>We thank IMC for their support and community leadership.</p>
