In the past few months I gave many talks about the modules that we created as part od Drupal 8 media initiative.

Swiss has traditionally been dedicated to the best quality and innovation. Some of the best things in life come from Switzerland. Did anyone mention chocolate?
Drupal community, please meet Vijay
Google summer of code 2016 started with a full swing this week. Vijay is one of the students participating in it. He is working on the Media module for Drupal 8.
He wrote an introduction blog post. I'd like to invite you to read it, say hi and follow his work as it progresses through the summer.
Welcome in the Drupal community Vijay!

Configuration is available under Content authoring configuration:
Time to submit Summer of code proposals!
