Good news everyone : now the real work awaits.
Cleaning up the project list, etc. and making sure that mentors are signed
up via https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2014, etc. -
Ian Jackson will receive mails from GSoC while I am away and may have to
forward key bits of information to you all.
I would suggest a conference call that includes mentors to tidy the project
list pretty soon. Maybe Russell can act as GSoC master, arrange the call
and chase mentors while I am away. We need to make sure that the project
list is in good shape before the 10th. Ideally by next week.
Also our home page in Melange may needs fixing. @Russell, please read the
mail below and lets discuss tomorrow before I leave.
24 February:19:00 UTCList of accepted mentoring organizations published on
the *Google Summer of Code* 2014 site.Interim Period:Would-be students
discuss project ideas with potential mentoring organizations.28 February
16:00 UTC:IRC meeting with rejected meThe ntoring organizations.10 March:19:00
UTCStudent application period opens.
IMPORTANT: in the application I stated that we encourage students to work
on bite size projects before the application (in the same way as it works
for OPW). Maybe OPW mentors want to share their experiences!
This will come your way in the next few weeks and you really should use
those 2-3 weeks to find out which students can work with you.
Best Regards
Lars
