Project:Possibility Partnership with GNOME a Success!
Wednesday, March 10, 2010 -
One of the exciting parts of this year's SS12 was working with GNOME. Two of the teams worked on implementing binary input for GNOME's Caribou On-Screen Keyboard, and both projects placed in the Top 3 in the finals! A huge thanks goes to Ben Konrath of GNOME who helped acquaint the students with the Caribou source code. We're looking forward to collaborating with GNOME on future projects!
