Presenting the Google Summer of Code 2009 "work complete" snapshot!
http://www.libsdl.org/tmp/SDL-GSoC-2009.zip The Google Summer of Code is a program sponsored by Google getting talented students and open source projects together. You can find out more about the Google Summer of Code program at http://socghop.appspot.com/ This year three students spent their summer adding functionality to SDL 1.3: * Edgar "bobbens" Simo created a suite of automated tests to help find bugs and verify new ports of SDL. * Martin Lowinski ported SDL to Linux on the PS3, adding SPE support for accelerated movie playback. * Jiang Jiang added IME support for asian language input on Mac OS X. I want to thank all of these students for the excellent work they contributed! Please feel free to download the snapshot and check out their work! If you run into any bugs, please enter them in the SDL bug tracking system at http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/ If you have any questions, please ask on the mailing list or the forums at http://forums.libsdl.org/ More information on the changes can be found on the SDL GSoC 2009 page: http://www.libsdl.org/gsoc.php Enjoy! -- -Sam Lantinga, Founder and President, Galaxy Gameworks LLC |

We applied as a mentoring organization, and we'll know in a few weeks whether we were accepted. Here are some links to whet your appetite in the meantime though. Google Summer of Code Homepage: http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/program/home/google/gsoc2010 SDL Project Ideas Page: http://www.libsdl.org/gsoc.php Because we've had applicants with widely varying skill levels, this year I'm asking all prospective applicants to submit a sample patch for SDL 1.3. It doesn't have to be big or even accepted, but it does have to show familiarity with the development process and good coding practices. See ya! -- -Sam Lantinga, Founder and President, Galaxy Gameworks LLC |
