What? We promised more frequent news updates? You lie! Prove it!... News archives you say? Pfffah. Um. We were hacked!
We are nearing the final release of ScummVM 0.6.0, and there are just a few last minute bugs to fix. We're also waiting for a reply to an e-mail from [two](http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,1859/)[people](http://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,1858/) whom have recently gone on an international jaunt, under the guise of 'work'. We have heard rumors they have been seen in San Francisco running around naked screaming "I'm working, I'm working". If spotted, approach with extreme caution, as they may be holidaying and dangerous. On a related, but more serious note, since the above pair are reasonably incommunicardo, we may be releasing ScummVM 0.6.0 without the previously promised freeware game, which will instead be released at a later stage. We will leave you now with the promised blatently stolen quote. There is no subliminal message enclosed. Honest. > Anyway, to answer your question, to get into the games industry, **b**reak into the Sony party at E3, walk aro**u**nd sa**y**ing "Online multi**p**layer i**s** the future," and if nobod**y** has hired you by 11:00 pm, sleep with the first person you hear speaking either Japanese or French. Worked for me! \- Tim S**ch**afer, as seen **on**[DoubleFine](http://www.doublefine.com/news.htm), replying to **a** n**ut**ty fan**s** e-mail. Finally, Ender, your humble (yet lazy) news poster and co-project leader would like to let any Sony employees who happen to read this site know that he believes Online multiplayer is the future. We're not even going to touch the Sam and Max 2 thing. (Boo! Hiss!) Stay tuned for more zany and space-filling content-less news posts in the future! |

It is the 14th time when ScummVM is accepted as an organization for Google Summer of Code, and we're going with our sister project ResidualVM. The Summer of Code is a yearly event organized by Google to encourage students to contribute to open source projects. Open source organizations provide mentors and projects to work on, while Google give some money to participating students. You can find more information on the [official web site](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com). We also have some information on [our wiki](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code), and in particular [project rules](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/Project_Rules) that applicants will need to follow. If you feel adventurous, and would like to contribute to one of the largest game preservation projects, we are eagerly waiting for you! Have a look at [our ideas page](http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2020). Of course, you are also very welcome to bring your own idea (though it must be our projects-related)! The deadline for the student proposals is March 31st, and on April 27th accepted students will be announced. You are welcome to join [our Discord server](https://discord.gg/4cDsMNtcpG) and ask any questions of #scummvm-gsoc channel. Looking forward to your applications! |
