GSoC is over!

Hi people!

I'm done with my work on the Google Summer of Code for this year and I would like to thank to all the people that helped me during the last 3 months.

Special thanks goes to my mentor (Denis Dupeyron) by all the friendship, support and the daily talks. I know that it was not easy for him. ;)

I would also like to thank:

Thank you all for make my Winter(?) coolest. ;)

I'm sorry if I forgot someone.

That's all for now...

Oooops... Wait! I'm not leaving the Gentoo development as can looks like, of course! My work is only starting. :)

Thanks again!
