Projects Reviewed

• Sugar - liked the structured approach and appears to be a good example of a properly structured HFOSS project. Surprised the blog, had spam posts on it. Seems to detract from quality of project
• Sahana Eden - Feel that this project could be a good one for introducing software that could apply directly to "real world" programming challenges.

General Observations

• Surprised at how IRC is a common tool for these projects
• Surprised at the low level of communication on IRC for projects, expected more conversations
• Helpful to have specific needs highlighted for different roles.
• Think the documentation aspect of projects could be a good way to reinforce good software engineering practices with students.
