+Title: GIMP is a Google Summer of Code 2022 mentor organization

+Summary: GIMP has been accepted as Google Summer of Code 2022 mentor organization

+
+GIMP used to regularly participate to the Google Summer of Code, long
+ago. Then we stopped participating after 2013.
+
+Nine years passed, we decided to give it a new try so we applied and
+yesterday we received an email:
+GNU Image Manipulation program is officially a [Google Summer
+of Code 2022](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/) mentor organization!
+
+If any of you, young fellows, are interested, it could be a good
+opportunity to jump into the development of a huge desktop program used
+by millions of people. Here are some ideas of what you could possibly
+work on: [wiki with list of possible project
+ideas](https://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Hacking:GSoC/Future/Ideas).
+
+On our side, we are interested in realistic projects which can really be
+finished or at least broken down in usable parts. Our list of ideas is
+mostly informative and we very much welcome people coming with their own
+ideas. If you want to participate, come [discuss with us on
+IRC](https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html#irc-matrix).
+
+## Requirements
+
+GIMP is a huge codebase with high quality level requirements before
+acceptance of any code. It will require any participant to be thorough,
+listen well to our reviews and have some perseverance.
+
+To increase acceptance chances, you could pick some bugs to fix or some
+easy features to implement (look in our [newcomers
+list](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues?scope=all&state=opened&label_name[]=4.%20Newcomers)
+or simply in the [full
+list](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues) of reports; possibly
+if you encounter an issue yourself, you could just come and fix that!),
+make a merge request with us and see how it goes. This would be the best
+kind of first contact before submitting your application.
+
+Last but not least: we don't care who you are, where you come from, your
+background, diplomas, gender or otherwise, but we care that you are nice
+people. GIMP is a community software, not a company. So the most
+important thing we care about is to protect our community members and
+always have a nice environment. If you come with a mean temper, it might
+be difficult; on the other end if such welcoming environment is what you
+are looking for, then feel very welcome! 🤗
+
+See you on the other side?!
