All project ideas for Outreachy need to be submitted by October 10

[Marina Zhurakhinskaya <marinaz redhat com>]

Hi all,

The GNOME Foundation has confirmed funding for three spots in Outreachy for the December round! If you would 
like to mentor this round, please head to https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/gnome/submit-project/ as 
soon as possible and submit your project idea there. All project ideas need to be added in the Outreachy's 
application system by mentors by October 10 and approved by coordinators by October 16. Only ideas approved 
in the system by October 16 will be available for Outreachy this round, so even if you are working with a 
prospective candidate on a project idea, you have to add it by October 10 to provide enough time for the 
triage committee (Matthias Clasen, Allan Day, and Sriram Ramkrishna) to review it by October 16. Mentors or 
applicants will not be able to propose new project ideas for this round of Outreachy after that.

Because GNOME only usually has a few participants in Outreachy, we are looking to offer projects that are 
most strategic for GNOME. These include, but are not limited to, projects in the area of privacy, GTK+, core 
experience, core applications, developer experience, and development infrastructure.

Outreachy application deadline is October 30. Please also consider applying or encouraging others to apply 
with the help of the resources at https://www.outreachy.org/promote/ More information about GNOME's 
participation in Outreachy is available at https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreach/Outreachy

Please feel free to e-mail gnome-outreachy-list gnome org , which is a private mailing list with Outreachy 
coordinators and mentors for GNOME, with any questions.

Thanks,
Marina
