GSOC 2016

[José Antonio Rey]

We have asked for some feedback to the GSOC team and they've hit some 
wiki problems when accessing our page right now, so it may take a while.

Also, they only had 180 spots, and they had more than double than that 
in applications. They always want to have some fresh organizations. But 
we'll try again next year!
