End of GSoC nearing

[Jérémie Laval]

Hey students!

Just as a remainder, we are now a couple days past the "Suggested pencils down" date with the final end of the program being next Monday (August 20th).

At this stage everyone should ensure his work is committed in his respective repository on the mono-soc GitHub organization, properly documented (at least a README) and ideally in a state allowing an easy merge into the main codebase (for those not working directly on the mainline).

I'm stressing the first requirement because if we see no code we won't be able to assess you during the final evaluation which for you automatically means failing GSoC and not receiving the final stipend.

Thanks for you hard work this summer and I hope you had fun hacking on your projects!

On the subject of the README,

If your project adds functionality to something existing (i.e. your are working on a branch meant to be merged to mainline), your README is essentially going to be what you will put in the pull request body you send us at the end (no need to write an actual file in the repository, just think about it).

Since you are going to send the same code to Google, think of that README as a way to explain what you did to people who know nothing about the project first-hands.
