Hi all,

This is a reminder that if you would like to be a mentor in the upcoming round of Outreachy, you need to submit the project you want to mentor for in the Outreachy application system today. We'd love to have more projects being offered :)!

Thanks,

Marina

Hi all,

The GNOME Foundation has confirmed funding for three spots in Outreachy for the December 2019 round! If you would like to mentor this round, please head to https://www.outreachy.org/december-2019-to-march-2020-internship-round/communities/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 4pm UTC on September 23 and approved by the triage committee (Matthias Clasen, Allan Day, and Sriram Ramkrishna) and coordinator (me) by 4pm UTC on September 24. Only ideas approved in the system by September 24 will be available for Outreachy this round.

Initial Outreachy applications are also due by 4pm UTC on September 24. If you are interested in participating, you can review the Outreachy applicant guide at https://www.outreachy.org/docs/applicant/ and apply at https://www.outreachy.org/apply/ Outreachy has restructured its application process this round, so that all applicants have the same amount of time to contribute to projects during the application period from October 1 to November 5. You can learn more about the changes at https://www.outreachy.org/blog/2019-07-23/outreachy-schedule-changes/

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 coordinator and mentors for GNOME, with any questions.

Thanks,
