Hi.

The Google Code-In contest is officially over. A total of 176 tasks
were completed for SymPy, by 64 students. A complete list of the
completed tasks can be found at
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/org/google/gci2011/sympy.

Some highlights of the program:

- Our webpage is now translated into five languages and our tutorial
is translated into three languages.

- The interface for SymPy Live (http://live.sympy.org) was completely
rewritten, and many new features, such as tab completion, full screen
mode, saved searches, and recent searches. We also now have a mobile
version of the site (http://live.sympy.org/shellmobile). If you have
not used SymPy Live since the Code-In program, I encourage you to
check it out.

- Our documentation, in particular our Sphinx documentation, was
vastly improved. For example, as a result of the program, we are now
much closer to the goal of including every public functions'
docstrings in the Sphinx docs. We are also now much closer to the
goal of complete docstring/doctest coverage for public functions,
classes, and methods throughout SymPy. Other documentation was
improved as well, such as the isympy manpage, and the new cheat sheet.

- Various bug fixes, cleanups, and improvements throughout the code
base, as well as to our webpage and our wiki.

Here is a list of all the students who completed at least one task for
SymPy. We have noted by some people what areas they worked in. For
full information about which tasks were completed, see

Thanks to all of these students for your contributions! We hope that
you will continue to contribute to SymPy outside the program, and that
you will use SymPy when you find yourself in need of a symbolic
mathematics system.

I would also like to thank all the mentors and anyone who helped to
review tasks for GCI.

Here is a list of some of the mentors who helped:

Aaron Meruer
Alexey Gudchenko
Chris Smith
Christian Muise
Hector (Prafullkumar P. Tale)
Joachim Durchholz
Mateusz Paprocki
Matthew Rocklin
Ondřej Čertík
Ronan Lamy
Saptarshi Mandal
Stefan Krastanov
Vladimir Perić

Thank you to all of you. Without your mentoring help, and assistance
with various other things like accumulating the tasks, SymPy's
participation in this contest would not be possible.

Finally, I want to thank Google for putting on this contest. This
goes out especially Stephanie Taylor and Carol Smith, who ran the
contest from Google, and to the developers of Melange, who were
helpful throughout the whole process.

Aaron Meurer and the SymPy development team

P.S. sorry for taking so long to get this out.
