[PD] GSoC Fwd: Thank you for your application

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

They only give feedback in the #gsoc room the day of the rejection.  Or at 
least that's how it worked last year.  That's all I got.

Be sure to thank Georg too, he was a major force in putting this thing 
together, in case I forgot to mention that.  And really, thanks everyone 
for contributing, it was nice to see so many people contribute.
