Hi,
today is the deadline for mentoring organization applications for the
Google Summer of Code 2022. I have already submitted our application, so
we will get evaluated by Google, and this evaluation can start today.
Therefore I want to remind you to update your project idea lists ASAP!!
Especially the following groups did not show up with their project ideas:
- Automotive Grade Linux
- IIO
- Enabling Linux in Safety Applications (ELISA)
- Improving Kernel Workflows
- kworkflow: Automating kernel workflow
- LSB
If you do not want to participate with your group this year, please tell
me ASAP and I will remove your group.

Hi,
some weeks ago, I asked you all to post your project ideas on our Wiki
pages (see below).
As the application time window for the organizations has started and
when it will end on Feb 21, Google will start evaluating and selecting
the orgs, I am reminding you to update your sub-groups page with the
current project information and also update everything what is needed,
especially talk about "contributors" and not "students" when talking
about the people who are coding, and also check your IRC channel
references because of the (semi-)demise of Freenode.
Please also remove the "Still needs to get updated!!" on your
workgroup's page.
And for each idea tell whether it is for a half-time or full-time project.
Also note the more and the better described ideas are posted, the better
are our chances to get accepted. You can remove (and also change or add)
projects later.
As an example, have a look at

Hi,
the Linux Foundation will apply again as mentoring organization in
this year's Google Summer of Code.
Note that GSoC 2022 will be different again, code contributors do not
need to be students, choice between 3-month´s full-time or half-time
projects, more flexibility of when coding takes place.
On February 7, 2022 the application period for mentoring organizations
for the Google Summer of Code 2022 will start.
To be successful, we need a rich project idea list so that we will get
selected by Google.
I have set up a page for project ideas for the Linux Foundation's
participation in the Google Summer of Code 2022:
https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/gsoc/google-summer-code-2022
Please add your ideas to the sub-page of your work group. Also remove
project ideas which are already done in one of the previous years or
not needed any more and make sure that all contact info is up-to-date
and all links are working.
Make sure to not talk about "students", but about "contributors"
instead. I have, at least partially, taken care of this when I have
copied your sub-group pages from last year.
Also make sure to remove the "**Still needs to get updated!!**" phrase
after having updated your project ideas.
If you have problems mail me with your project ideas and other editing
wishes.
The ideas list is in the Linux Foundation Wiki. If you want to edit
and did not have the edit rights already from previous years, please
tell me and I give you edit rights. I need your Linux Foundation user
name for that and the e-mail address associated with this account for
this.
Please also take into account that the deadline for our application as
mentoring organization is Feb 21 and after that Google will evaluate
the applications. So have your ideas (at least most of them, ideas can
be posted up to the student application deadline) in by then to raise
our chances to get accepted.
Please also tell us if you do not want to participate any more with
your workgroup, so that we can remove your sub-page.
