  3. All of Googles open source projects under a single umbrella
    I participated three times in open source programs created by Google Open Source. I participated in two editions of Google Summer of Code (GSoC) and one edition of Google Code-in (GCI). For all of these programs, I was part of AnitaB.org Open Source (previously, Systers Open Source).
