I should also say on that topic, that I would much rather see a single well formed *announcement* once we have everything ready, rather than chaotic emails in random mailing lists.

1) As much as I appreciate that, the deadline is not "yesterday" yet, and we are on top of it. I agree that it is org-wide, however it doesn't mean that we should all now stand on our heads and flip tables. Wait for the appropriate entity (Bex & CommOps) to take care of the organization of things - and here I am not telling you to not think about ideas and what to mentor, I am specifically referring to the above asked question "Does Fedora have a page for Summer coding ideas for 2017?" and similar questions, to which there is but a single answer - Not yet, working on it.


And on that note I would like to ask this thread to end here - it doesn't belong into all these mailing lists.
>> Something something INFRA something something INFRA

I was referring to the following - not infra specific:

Radka,

 

In agreement with Pierre, I respectfully  decline to remove it from the lists on two accounts:

1) as Pierre stated, its NEVER too early to source talented mentors /  ideas

2) GSoC is supposed to be a org wide thing, and spreading info far and wide within the project IS exactly what we should be doing, it prevents a lack of interest AND the always inevitable ' Can I get a deadline waiver, I only found out yesterday ( when the deadline was last wednesday) '
