Re: [Publicity] GSoC + OPW Blog post for review

[Lars Kurth <lars.kurth@xxxxxxx>]

Fixed. OPW is really picky about not calling their winners students and GSoC is picky about not calling students interns

As for TM rules : I didn't want to change the titles of the projects as these are how they were submitted by the applicants and changing them will make it hard to cross reference the proposals. I mainly took the descriptions from the proposals as well and fixed them were there were grammar and syntax errors. I will leave this for now ...

Lars,

Looks like we're not trying to apply TM rules to this blog. 

Think you are confusing applicants and winners/chosen interns. How about this intro. instead?

Google and the Outreach Program for Women (OPW) just announced GSoC students and OPW interns. I wanted to briefly introduce our new interns and their projects, and ask you to welcome them to the project.

We had a large number of applicants and could only take the best 7 (5 interns for GSoC and 2 for OPW). What is remarkable this year, is that 4 out of the 7 winning applicants to the Xen Project are women.

Also, suggest a change to this sentence:

This project will load what we call an empty VM and let the page fault handler load the pages, introducing the concept of Lazy restore and using memory paging.

How about this instead? 

This project will load what we call an empty VM and let the page fault handler load the pages, using memory paging to introduce the concept of Lazy restore.

Also, does Lazy need to be capitalized?

Some of the project descriptions could probably do with a little bit more detail and need to be vetted for correctness
