We are happy to announce that The NetBSD Foundation will participate in Google Summer of Code 2026 with 5 projects!

Many join GSoC, few sustain impact since 2011 with 20+ projects most years. At INCF, projects do not end in August, they evolve into tools, integrate into ecosystems, and keep serving neuroscience.
