  <pre wrap="">Thank you Raoul, and everyone else who contributed.

This has happened to the OBF before, and we never really understood
why. So don't feel bad for your efforts - we gave it a good shot. Thank
you all.

We should post an announcement on the OBF news blog, and email to
all the project lists too? Could you write something? I can post it on the
blog or make an account there (I don't think you have one yet).

  <blockquote type="cite"><pre wrap="">Dear All,

we got the formal communication that Open Bioinformatics Foundation (OBF)
has not been accepted for the Google Summer of Code 2015.

We can still participate migrating some of our projects to other
organizations, I encourage every mentor to explore the list of accepted
organizations [1] and directly contact them. Please let us know and we'll
try to help if possible.
We are in touch with a friend organization so we'll try to migrate some
project to Ruby Science Foundation [2].
Other organizations with bioinformatics as keyword are Department of
Biomedical Informatics, Stony Brook University [3], OncoBlocks[4],
University of Nebraska - Helikar Lab [5]. Other organizations related to
sciences are ASCEND [6] , BRL-CAD [7], Debian Project [8] , HPCC Systems®
[9] , International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility [10] , lmonade:
scientific software distribution [11] , OSGeo - Open Source Geospatial
Foundation [12], The Concord Consortium [13], The Visualization Toolkit
[14]. Languages: Python [15], Scala [16], Apache Foundation [17].
Last but not least : Global Alliance for Genomics &amp; Health [18]


It is always complicated to understand why an organization has not been
accepted and there are many reasons, many orgs are applying every year and
they tend to introduce fresh air. There are no specific comments from
Google. We'll dissect every aspect and activities to better understand and
improve our presence for the next year.

In the mean time, find an host org for our projects and participate to GSoC
2015.
