Since 16 years, the Boost foundation has been selected as a mentor
organization by the Google Summer of Code
<https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/> committee. If I am not mistaken,
Boost has mentored over 100 students who contributed to existing and
experimental boost libraries.

This year, 8 students successfully contributed to Boost.Real, Boost.Gil,
Boost.Math, Boost.Python, Boost.uBlas, Boost.Multiprecision, see project
descriptions
<https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/6722937052200960/#projects>
. Here
<https://opensource.googleblog.com/2021/06/google-summer-of-code-2021-student-stats.html>
are some stats about GSoC21.

I would like to thank all students for their contribution and all mentors
who have made this possible. Keep up the good work!

All the best,
Cem
