Call for participants in the Google Summer of Code for Debian
The Google Summer of Code
is a program that allows post-secondary students aged 18 and older to
earn a stipend writing code for Free and Open Source Software projects
during the summer.
Debian has just been accepted as a mentoring organization for this
year’s program! We’re looking for students and mentors to make this
GSoC in Debian the best ever!
Eligible students, now is the time to take a look at our
project ideas list, engage with the mentors for the
projects you find interesting, and start working on
your application! For more information, please
read the FAQ and the Program Timeline
on Google’s website.
Mentors for prospective projects can still submit proposals on the
project ideas list. You also need to send an email to
the mailing list linked below to present your project in a few
words. Feel also free to propose yourself as a co-mentor for one of the
listed projects, more help is always welcome!
If you are interested, we encourage you to come and chat with us on irc
(#debian-soc on irc.oftc.net), or to send an email to
the SoC coordination mailing-list
(subscribe). Most of the Debian-specific GSoC
information can be found on our wiki pages, but don’t
be afraid to ask us directly on irc or via email.
We’re looking forward to work with an amazing team of students and
mentors again this summer!
