As things stand now, I don't think there is enough mutual trust between ESUG and Janko to proceed with GSOC2014. I think either the name is changed to "Smalltalk" as Janko proposed, which many people have objected to, or he should take a step back. I have experience with GSOC having served as admin for the GNU project in 2011 so, if necessary, I volunteer to run the organization as admin (and as ESUG). I want to point out _very_ clearly, from the beginning that I wouldn't want to have anything to do with any "extra slots" like there were last year. This would be something for ESUG to sort out if they have the money. Now, I cannot deny that I haven't been involved very much in Smalltalk programming for the last few years. On the other hand administration is mostly bureaucratic work, and I clearly have no bias in favor or against any particular dialect. Regards, Paolo
