 Welcome to the seventeenth issue of Tor Weekly News in 2014, the weekly
 newsletter that covers what is happening in the XXX Tor community.
 
-Feature XXX
------------
+Introducing the 2014 Google Summer of Code projects
+---------------------------------------------------
 
-Feature 1 with cited source [XXX]
+As announced in February [XXX], Tor is once again participating in
+Google’s Summer of Code program, allowing students and aspiring
+developers the chance to work on a Tor-related project with funding from
+Google and expert guidance from Tor Project members. After several
+months of coordination and discussion, this summer’s successful
+proposals have now been chosen, and some of the students took to the
+tor-dev mailing list to introduce themselves and their upcoming work.
 
- [XXX]:
+Juha Nurmi [XXX] will continue to work on the already-operational
+ahmia.fi hidden service search engine, while Marc Juarez [XXX] will be
+“implementing the building blocks for a future padding-based website
+fingerprinting countermeasure as a pluggable transport”. Daniel
+Martí [XXX] has taken up the challenge of implementing proposal
+140 [XXX], which aims to considerably reduce the size of the network
+consensus data that Tor clients fetch every hour, and Israel Leiva [XXX]
+plans to spruce up the neglected GetTor service, which allows users to
+download the Tor Browser Bundle even if the Tor website and its mirrors
+are inaccessible. Amogh Pradeep [XXX] will be contributing to the
+Guardian Project’s development of Orfox, a new Android web browser to be
+used with Orbot, while Kostas Jakeliunas [XXX] returns to Tor GSoC to
+construct a new BridgeDB distributor, serving bridge addresses to users
+in censored areas over Twitter, and possibly other channels as well.
+
+You can read more about each proposal in the respective introductory
+messages and their replies; a full list of accepted projects is
+available on the Google Summer of Code website [XXX]. As Daniel wrote,
+“comments are very welcome”!
