Excellent work/progress. Good to see what I perceive as considerable
improvement/stabilization. One thing I think is missing is any reference to
GSoC participation regarding projects/development. As a spectator I don't
have any more than desire to see success for all that are actively involved
in work to improve Blender.

It does amaze me that there are so many participants "around the world"
that are allowed/able to contribute to such a fine product. Any concerns
about intentional interference (cause harm) is reduced when I see the
community involvement to support program.
