Dear Boost,

We are very glad to announce that non-Google funding has been found 
to continue the Summer of Code for the following veteran student 
projects in Summer 2016:

A. Boost Document, mentored by Antony Polukhin. Veteran student: 
Anurag Ghosh

https://anuragxel.github.io/boost-document/

B. Boost.Compute, mentored by Kyle Lutz. Veteran student: Jakub 
Szuppe

https://boostorg.github.io/compute/

C. Boost.Http, mentored by Bjorn Reese. Veteran student: Vinícius dos 
Santos Oliveira

https://boostgsoc14.github.io/boost.http/

All three of these projects shall see a Summer of Code as if it were 
Google Summer of Code following the same timeline, mentor and student 
stipends, and progress acceptance criteria.

Our thanks to the students and mentors for being so patient during 
the organisation of this funding. This all happened very quickly and 
much faster than Boost org processes normally happen - it would not 
have been possible without the efforts of Jon Kalb and Bryce 
Adelstein Lelbach, the latter of whom wrote up a great funding 
request worth reading at https://goo.gl/7v3VMK. Thanks are also due 
to the Boost Steering Committee for moving so quickly to vote on 
this, and to Boris Schäling for finding sponsorship for this effort.

And finally congratulations to the veteran students!

Niall and Bryce
