HCD 2008

Here is an overview of the Haiku Code Drive 2008 program:

  • We have come up with the following list of candidates and their projects from the students that could not make it into the GSoC and expressed their desire to participate.
  • We asked the community to support the program by making donations to a common fund, and raised a total of approximately $7,500.
  • An open poll was held so that the community could vote for the student/project they want the donated funds to go to.
  • Based on the results of the poll and the amount of donated funds, we decided to sponsor four students shown in the "Haiku Code Drive 2008 Projects" section below.
  • The selected candidates work on their projects, and in the end each receives a US$2,500 stipend (a milestone-based mid-term 50% payment is being considered).
