What about asking the OSG people instead, to participate in the GSoC?

There's not all that much that a student could do for OSG except fix bugs or write documentation, both of which don't really qualify for GSoC. They could ask for someone to help them design a new scene graph which supports Vulkan, for example, but that would require a graphics expert, not a student.

 I think 2018 will be the year of the OpenMW 1.0 release.
Someone has to mention this law though.

Well in mid 2015, I thought we'd be done by late 2015, so hopefully I've soaked up at least a few rounds of Hofstadter's law.

Lots and lots of nearly-invisible bugs to fix. Maybe I should contribute again. I tried looking for what was causing https://bugs.openmw.org/issues/3876 but couldn't find it.

Suuuuure. Tbh, 2019-2020 would be more realistic.

Someone always HAS to be a kill joy. I'm personally inclined to believe Zini if he, as project lead, says that this year will probably see the release of 1.0

Well, there's always Hofstadter's Law:
Hofstadter's Law: It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law.
:P

To be serious: I wish you're gonna do it this year, without any unexpected problems. Of course there is nothing wrong IMHO in delaying releases if it's needed, yet still I hope best.
Also hello there.

I really hope someone with programming knowledge is interested in creating some kind of compatibility layer with MWSE after 1.0...

Because otherwise the best Necromancy mod ever made (Blasphemous Revenants: http://download.fliggerty.com/download-110-1) would remain unplayable in OpenMW :/
