[geeklog-devel] GSoC 2012 is happening

[Vincent Furia]

Here's my "wishlist" for GSoC.

   1. Core notification support
   2. Replace current session handling with PHP Sessions
   3. Template Engine Replacement

I suppose I should add/update those in the wiki. Hopefully I'll have some
time to do so shortly.
