So students and mentors, please write what do you think current status
of project is: is it done, is it ready, is it perhaps already merged
in, or can be merged in at any time. Please write also what wasn't
done, or what should be done different way (hindsight and all that).
Students, could you please tell us if you plan to work on git further,
and in what range (how much time can you get to work on git). What do
you think about git development community? What have you learned from
participating in GSoC?

Hello all,
VCS::Git::Torrent can only transfer data under limited circumstances at
the moment, and doesn't do peering. Part of that is actually due to
work done after the deadline, unfortunately for me :-) Anyway, I am
definitely interested in continuing to work on git (and GitTorrent) as
it is the VCS I use personally. It is, however, the start of the
semester here and I am currently focusing on that and job searching as
this is my last semester.
I had a really good experience working with the git community over the
past few months. It was really cool to see very talented people working
together. It was a little intimidating too. Another thing I learned
about was the 'O' in OSS, or being 'Open' about development. This is a
completely different paradigm for me, as all of my previous experience
is personal development or 'corporate' development (things done at
work), neither of which required telling anybody about anything until
completion. Regular status updates that were requested during the
second half made that much more clear and, in fact, facilitated my
understanding in this area.
So, thank you all again, and I hope to continue to work with you in the
future.
Joshua Roys
