Seven Students for Summer of Code

[Josh Berkus <josh(at)postgresql(dot)org>]

The PostgreSQL project welcomes our seven Summer of Code students. We're 
expecting some really cool new features of this, and more importantly, 
some new PostgreSQL contributors! The projects are:

    * Full Disjunctions by Itzhak Fadida, mentored by Jonah H. Harris
    * xlog viewer by Diogo de Oliveira Biazus, mentored by Simon Riggs
    * Hashing DISTINCT Clause Implementation by Beth Jen, mentored by Jonah 
H. Harris
    * phpPgAdmin improvements by John Jawed, mentored by Robert Treat
    * Enhanced Aggregate Support by Sergey Koposov, mentored by Oleg 
Bartunov
    * ECPG Cleanup by Joachim Wieland, mentored by Michael Meskes
    * Initial support of XMLType for PostgreSQL by Nikolay Samokhvalov, 
mentored by Peter Eisentraut

Additionally, two students have been connected with internship 
opportunities at PostgreSQL-supporting companies.

Welcome students, and a big thank you to Google for making this work and 
education possible.
