Hi all,

I'm happy to let you know that Kristi Progri and Felipe Borges are joining me as co-coordinators for Outreachy! Thank you both for stepping up for this role!

The GNOME Foundation has confirmed funding for three spots in Outreachy for the December 2020 round. If you would like to mentor this round, please head to https://www.outreachy.org/outreachy-december-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 Tuesday, September 29.

Outreachy received a lot of initial applications, and will need more time to review them. The project submission deadline for mentors was moved to 4pm UTC on October 3. This means you have all week to submit a project if you would like to mentor one. The contribution period will be October 5 to October 31.

Thanks,

Marina

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. 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
