Hi,

the application period for the students is over and though the Linux 
Foundation has got a total of 22 student applications, only ONE (1) 
student has applied for an OpenPrinting project. So printing is really 
not sexy :-(

And this one student has also applied for an idea which is more data 
compression that then printing-typical stuff. The application at least 
makes a good impression, so I will go with that student.

But a lot of work we wanted to get done by this GSoC did not find a student.

See (or hear) you on the OpenPrinting Summit. Perhaps we should discuss 
how to make printing more interesting for developers.
