[Discuss-gnuradio] GSoC and GRCon13

[Tom Rondeau]

I just wanted to take a moment and recognize the great work that our
GSoC participants have been doing this year. They've all provided us
updates throughout the summer, and I'm really excited to see how they
finish up over the next few weeks. We're improving GRC, developing
802.11 capabilities, pushing forward with using coprocessors like
FPGAs, and developing FECs capabilities. We've seen great things come
from the GSoC program for the past two years, and we are particularly
interested in what these students are doing because they will help us
define the future for GNU Radio.

All GSoC participants will have an opportunity to present their
exiting work, during GRCon13. We believe the conclusions of these
projects will enhance the rest of the program, which includes a number
of high-quality sessions of various types - application examples,
new-feature tutorials, and even a new working-group/feedback sessions
designed to help us improve the project and community.

Also, don't forget - we will be having a 1-day hackfest on the fourth
day of the conference. The hackfest has proven to be a fun and highly
productive way for our community to interact.

We will be announcing the final agenda of GRCon13 next week. We look
forward to everyone's participation!
