Rejection Letter template

Subject: OSGeo: APPLICATIONIDEA

Dear STUDENT,

We at OSGeo regret that your application "APPLICATIONIDEA" has
not been funded by Google.

We still feel that you had a strong application, and given additional
funding we would have liked to have had you along. You made the short list.
If you are still interested in your project and choose to proceed without
funding, Google has agreed to send you some goodies if the work is complete
by summer's end (including a standard Google t-shirt). Perhaps your school
has an independent study program where you could receive course credit for
the task?

We hope to see you applying also next year!

Thank you very much for your interest and ideas, we value it!

Regards,
OSGeo SoC Mentoring team
