we had a great Google Code-in
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Code-in> contest this year. Of
the 28 multimedia-related tasks
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/query/DYHxaKZei.pe/#R> we
had, 23 were closed, thanks to three very talented students, Danny
(unicodesnowman), Geoffrey (Sn1per) and Mateusz (m4tx). Thanks all for
participating and improving MediaWiki, it was a pleasure to work with
you! I was continuously impressed by the high quality of the patches.
Thanks Tgr, you've been a fantastic mentor.
