Dear GNOME hackers,
It's that time of the year again: Google Summer of Code is
approaching. We've updated our program pages [1] to have the latest
information and we need your help in creating a list of great project
ideas. It's essential that we have a well-prepared ideas page when
GNOME applies as a mentoring organization by next Friday, February .
So what should you do? Please visit the ideas page [2] and enter your
project ideas under the "Untriaged Ideas" section.
* Discuss your ideas with designers in #gnome-design to get their
input and plan collaboration, especially if your ideas are related to
one of the core GNOME modules. If you are not sure who to speak to,
start with Allan Day (aday).
* Consider manageable ideas consisting of multiple smaller features
that share a common theme, in addition to single large feature ideas.
See the information for mentors page [3] for more on preferred project
formats and other mentoring resources.
If you are interested in being a mentor this year or at any point find
yourself drafted to be one, please join soc-mentors-list [4] to
receive future communications about GNOME's participation in GSoC,
including the information about important deadlines.
The GNOME administrators for GSoC participation this year are
Christophe Fergeau, Alexandre Franke, Ekaterina Gerasimova, Lasse
Schuirmann, and Carlos Soriano. Big thank you to Marina
Zhurakhinskaya, who was an administrator for the last four years!
Welcome to Carlos, a former intern and mentor!
Cheers,
The GNOME Google Summer of Code Administrators
