-  * Booting Windows Server 2003 over iSCSI using gPXE +
-  * Booting Linux using [[http://syslinux.zytor.com/pxe.php|PXELINUX]] and gPXE +
-  * gPXE's HTTP support for loading files+
  
-Traffic at the booth was brisk, and we met lot of new people who are interested in our technology.+We had great summer ​of design, implementation,​ documentation,​ and testing!
  
-**Update**+  ​[[:​soc:​2009:​|Our GSoC 2009 main project page]] ​
  
-Please note that some of the code for iSCSI booting of Windows has been temporarily taken out of the gPXE codebase at the request of Microsoft Corporation. One necessary part for iSCSI boot in Windows is the iBFT data structure which Microsoft claims is proprietary at this time.+  * [[:​soc:​2009:​wrapup|Our GSoC 2009 wrapup report]] ​
  
-**Update 13 March 2007**+  ​[[:​soc:​ideas|Our GSoC 2009 project ideas page]] ​
  
-Microsoft has released an iBFT specifications document which requires agreeing to a Microsoft License Agreement to download. ​ We have asked the [[http://softwarefreedom.org|Software Freedom Law Center]] to examine the required license and give us an opinion on whether we can safely release open source code based on the specification.+ --- //[[mdc@etherboot.org|Marty Connor]] 2009/09/08 18:57//

-**Update 9 August 2007**+==== Current tarball releases ====
  
-IBM has released the iBFT specification document under GPL-friendly terms. ​ The iBFT codebased on the IBM documentis now back in the codebase. ​ [[:sanboot|Enjoy!]]+Though we recommend and encourage use of **[[:​download|our git repository]]** to download gPXE and Etherboot releases, we also provide tarballs: 
 + 
 +  * gPXE release tarballs: [[http://​kernel.org/​pub/​software/​utils/​boot/​gpxe/​]] (preferredsupportedPXE compatible)
