See our <a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/projects.html\">projects page<\/a> for a list.<\/li>\n<li><b>Publishing Google APIs<\/b>:  &#8230;so that people can write 3rd-party applications that use our technology, such as search or maps.  See our <a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/apis.html\">APIS page<\/a> for a list.<\/li>\n<li><b>Sponsoring OSS organizations<\/b>:  &#8230;we participate, both financially and politically, in important OSS organizations such as the FSF, Mozilla, Apache and Python foundations.<\/li>\n<li><b>Participating in OSS communities<\/b>:  &#8230;we participate directly in OSS communities where we have expertise:  Apache, Subversion, Firefox, Open Office.  We attend OSS conferences and speak about open source.<\/li>\n<li><b>Encouraging new generations of OSS coders<\/b>&#8230; by creating programs like the <a href=\"http:\/\/code.google.com\/summerofcode.html\">Summer of Code<\/a>, whereby we pay students to work with mentors on OSS coding projects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Hopefully this gives you a better idea of what sort of things I do.
