Our FOSSASIA'15 [http://2015.fossasia.org] event in Singapore in March has been a fantastic success. Thanks to everyone who helped to make this event possible! We would also like to thank all sponsors, venue partners and our main supporters Red Hat [http://www.redhat.com/openstack/evaluation/] and Google [http://www.google-melange.com/].

Below are some numbers and facts of 2015 now, some info about 'What's Next in 2015' and our FOSSASIA GSoC program [http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org2/google/gsoc2015/fossasia] with 5,500 USD stipends for students (tight Deadline 27 March, apply now!).
