[Adium-devl] Summer of Code '09

[Nicolas Bellville]

I'll soon begin to learn programming with Python: one of my teachers told me about a free book about Python, which I downloaded. It'll take time to finish it and then to learn C and objective C but I'll seriously work at it in my spare time.Nicolas

 I know I've not been active in the development so far, as I am new to the community, but as I read through the code and figure out what's going on I'll be trying to contribute more.

+1. The only other thought I have is if we really have a couple of solid ideas, we could sign up and only take (at most) 2 students, and be prepared to walk away if we don't have really strong self-motivated students applying.
