I understand the desire and disappointment here...and am sorry that it 
wasn't realized in this GSOC cycle. 

But if you want to have an under graduate project and contribute to the 
Eclipse/ECF communities, I believe this opportunity is still open to you.

If you make quality contributions, and work cooperatively with the ECF 
community and committers, this will be of great benefit to you as 
well...in experience, working with a great team, working on an excellent 
piece of software technology, and potential for wide usage/distribution 
as part of ECF/Eclipse.  I know that typical Under Graduate projects do 
not typically include a large community working on something (rather 
usually are the student working pretty much alone), but this doesn't 
seem (to me) an immutable law of nature :).

I guess what I'm saying is...if you still want to participate in ECF 
then please do so.  There will be a lot of work on REST/ECF, etc for the 
next year...and there will be many of us working on it at different 
times/forms.  What you get out of it will be a function of what you put 
into it (at least that's been my experience).
