  Why is your organization applying to participate in Google Summer of Code 2014? What do you hope to gain by participating?::
-    We apply once more as we hope to implement new features in MacPorts
-    and attract new developers to our project and its community. With
-    new feature additions and enhancements to our components (e.g. our
-    GUI), we hope to become more user-friendly for the average OS X user
-    and further increase the quality of our packages. Some big goals
-    this year are improving dependency resolution and minimizing
-    MacPorts’ dependency on Xcode (since we now provide pre-built
-    binaries, and Apple now provides standalone CLI tools).
+    Boosted by the success of the projects done in 2011 and 2013, we're
+    eager to add new features and increase the user-friendlyness of MacPorts.
+    We're hoping to attract new developers that will stay with the project
+    and work on new features and necessary refactoring of our code.
+    Big goals this year are improving the dependency calculation and
+    making the Xcode dependency optional.
 
  Has your organization participated in past Google Summers of Code? (yes/no)::
     Yes.
