Git has been accepted to this year's Summer of Code program. At this point, the list of accepted organizations has been published, and students will start looking at ideas pages and communicating with organizations about their plans. The actual application period starts on March 28th. The full timeline is here: http://www.google-melange.com/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2011/timeline In the meantime, we should be doing a few things: 1. Make any last-minute adjustments or additions to the ideas page as soon as possible. Students will be looking at it and making decisions starting now. The page is at: https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/SoC2011Ideas 2. Be on the lookout for students coming on the list to ask questions. Our SoC organization page lists #git and #git-devel on freenode as our irc point-of-contact, so we may get questions there, too. 3. Potential mentors should sign up on the SoC site: http://www.google-melange.com/ Even if you don't think you will end up mentoring (e.g., many people volunteered to do so if the right project came along) sign up if you would like to help rate student proposals. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
