More Encouragement for Open Source - Google Highly Open Participation Contest

From the Website (http://code.google.com/opensource/ghop/2007-8/)
Google is holding a contest for pre-university students (e.g., high school and secondary school students) with the aim of encouraging young people to participate in open source. We will work with ten open source organizations for this pilot effort, each of whom will provide a list of tasks to be completed by student contestants. Tasks can be anything a project needs help with, from bug fixes to writing documentation to user experience research.
The list of projects open for participation includes Moodle and Drupal - both exciting projects in the area of content management.
