In 2011, 4 team members mentored 2 students. Sadly, one gave up quickly, but the other succeeded in objectifying the CruisE engine, which really needed it. With a step back, we still consider our processes to be mature, the problem came from internal tensions we addressed by redefining the project management structure.
In 2011, 4 team members mentored 2 students. Sadly, one gave up quickly, but the other succeeded in objectifying the CruisE engine, which really needed it.

In 2010 we were granted 4 slots and had 6 mentors, thus we had nice backup mentoring for every student. All four passed the finals this time, and we merged in their code. One student still continues to contribute to the project. We addressed several long standing project needs and it was just excellent.
