    +Well it's September now, which means that the
    +[Google Summer of Code](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com) has ended. If you
    +missed our announcement post earlier this year you can find it over
    +[here]({{< ref "gsoc-2021" >}}).
    +
    +James Culver worked on the History API which is key to our future support of
    +such features as message editing, message reactions, read/delivery receipts,
    +server side history, reactions, etc. The work James has done is currently up
    +for [review](https://reviews.imfreedom.org/r/877/) and will hopefully be merged
    +in the very near future.
    +
    +Prateek Pardeshi worked on the Account Creation Assistant which is a guided
    +assistant to help users add accounts to Pidgin. This is an important feature
    +to make Pidgin more approachable to non-technical users who may be a bit lost
    +in our current account creation user interface. Unfortunately due to unforeseen
    +circumstances, Prateek was unable to complete this project.
    +
    +We're considering this year a success and will be applying to be a mentoring
    +organization again next year.
    +
    +We wish both James and Prateek the best in their future development work and
    +hope to see them continue working in Open Source in the future!
