Another great year for Joomla! Google summer of code just started. This year we got the awesome amount of 10 students to help improving Joomla! on various topics - four more than last year! Please give them a warm welcome and support them in any way possible.
GSoC is a great opportunity for students as well as for Joomla. In the past years, GSoC brought several new features to the CMS, like the multilingual associations manager and JavaScript tests, in Joomla! 3.7 or the Template Manager in Joomla! 3.2.
