TeX projects in the Google Summer of Code

[Jonathan Fine]

Are you a student looking for rewarding summer work?  Or do you know 
someone who is.  There here is an opportunity.

Since 2005 Google has paid students to work on open-source projects 
during the summer.  This year the TeX Users Group (TUG) is a mentoring
organization.

TUG has three project ideas
1)  Better Unicode compliance for TeX extensions
2)  Improvements to the texshow Context website
3)  Improved JavaScript support for MathTran

PlanetMath.org and the Comprehensive C Archive Network are also
mentoring
