Hi everyone, to every mentor of our Summer of Code (GSoC) projects: please do not forget to submit the mid-term evaluations for the Google Summer of Code. They are due on July 5th, 2006. To the students: if your mentor has requested any additional information you didn't provide yet (project progress, planning, first milestones etc), you should get in touch with him. Please note that the SoC project work does *not* have to be half way done, "mid-term" refers to the time, not the amount of work done - we all know that software projects are half-way done when they're finished 90%. There are links to the survey(s) you have to submit on the mentor home page: http://code.google.com/soc/mentor_home.html The evaluation is a multiple-choice questionnaire, so you don't have to write a multi-page essay if you don't want to (you can add comments, though). The most important question is about the mid-term payment ($2000) for the students - a "no" will deny the payment and disqualify the student from GSoC entirely. You should probably get in touch with other mentors if you think you have to do so - I hope no one does have to consider this. Just in case, the timetable for GSoC is available at http://code.google.com/soc/mentorfaq.html#timeline The finaly deadline is 21st August 2006, 15:00 UTC (08:00 PDT). So far, all deadline have been extended slightly, but you shouldn't count on this. The mid--term survey deadline has already been extended. The evaluations would have been due tomorrow - if you didn't know this, it's probably time to read the whole FAQ at http://code.google.com/soc/mentorfaq.html Google's main communications channel towards the SoC admins and mentors is the group/list Summer-Administrators-2006, to be found at http://groups.google.com/group/Summer-Administrators-2006 It is recommended to be subscribed there.
