Git has been accepted to Google Summer of Code 2008, our second year particpating in this exciting program. http://code.google.com/soc/2008/git/about.html There is a nice categorized list of the other 175 accepted organizations listed here: http://genmapp.org/gsoc/mentors_by_category.htm Students interested in applying to Git for this year's summer of code should look at the program FAQ, and especially the timeline: http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html http://code.google.com/opensource/gsoc/2008/faqs.html#0.1_timeline Student applications are March 24th through March 31st. But you can start getting active now. Interested students should take a look at our ideas page and application template: http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/SoC2008Ideas http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/SoC2008Template Students can directly contact a potential mentor by email or #git on IRC, or to start discussing a project of interest on the mailing list itself. All Git related projects are welcome, so if you have an interesting idea not listed on our ideas page, speak up! Anyone who has been here a while and is interested in being a mentor, please contact me off-list and I'll give you the details. We want mentors who are passionate about the student project they are paired up with, and who know that particular part of Git well enough to help a student who is new to Git (and open source) do something really exciting this summer. -- Shawn. -- 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
