My revision is both pasted below and attached as a text file.  I am not 
posting because I prefer you send the original after one more check and 
because I see two open questions: to intent and title; distribution and a 
possible added line.  See my response to Guido.  So decide, revise if 
necessary, sign, and send.  Also, I do not have access to Jython or 
IronPython lists.

Google 2006 Summer of Code and Python Software Foundation

This spring and summer, Google corporation will again provide several 
hundred stipends for students (18+, undergraduate thru PhD programs) to 
write new open-source code.  The main page is

http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html

At the bottom are links to StudentFAQ, MentorFAQ, and TermsOfService.  The 
first two have the timeline.  Note that student applications are due 
between May 1, 17:00 PST and May 8, 17:00 PST.


The Python Software Foundation (PSF)

http://www.python.org/psf/

will again act as a sponsoring organization matching mentors and projects 
benefiting Python and Python programmers.  Besides Python implementationns, 
projects can include work on programmer utilitilies, libraries, packages, 
or frameworks related to Python.  Project ideas are welcome and can be 
added to

http://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode

possibly as links to fuller explanations elsewhere.


The projects from last summer are described at

http://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2005

People interested in mentoring a student though PSF are encouraged to >> 
contact Neal Norwitz at nnorwitz at gmail.com.  People unknown to Neal or 
Guido should find a couple of people known within the Python community that 
are willing to act as references
