+<p>Google Summer of Code 2011 is in preparation stages. For the first time we
+have more admin volunteers than we need - which is great.</p>
+<p>The EU project (OpenSE) that planned to bring students to our mentoring programme is
+about to commence its second pilot run. In the first run we had a number of
+interested enquiries but nobody actually started work as a mentee. On the one
+hand this is a dissapointment, on the othe it is good to know that our ASF
+volunteers are not wasting time on the initial phases of engaging mentees that,
+ultimately, bring nothing to the project.
+The OpenSE team believes the main barrier is the high expectations we have of
+students - we make it clear that they must be self-motivated and results
+oriented. This coupled with the reputaton of the ASF appears to be intimidating
+potential mentees. In the next pilot the learning assitants are focussing on the
+career advantages experience with ASF projects can bring and are introducing a
+"community game" which will introduce students to the idea of engaging in public.</p>
+<p>Apache-extras.org was launched. As agreed the committee is hands off on the
+management of this site. There are currently 89 projects listed.</p>
