The place to start is by bookmarking the GSoC 2016 page at http://wiki.list.org/DEV/Google%20Summer%20of%20Code%202016 and the DEV page itself at http://wiki.list.org/DEV/ If you haven't already checked Google's rules, do so at the "new GSoC page" at https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ (note that it's not "google-melange.com" any more!) If you have a "Mailman itch" you need to "scratch", please let us know about it. It might make a good GSoC project. If not, check the ideas page (the first link above). Finally, once you've got yourself a bit oriented, you should get yourself a gitlab account[1], and check the issues at https://gitlab.com/groups/mailman/issues for something easy (like a doc fix), and start working toward a merge request. We want you to have at least one under your belt before starting the summer. (It doesn't have to be approved and merged for you to qualify -- it's just proof that you're ready to deal with the mechanics of contributing to Mailman.) Footnotes: [1] Not github, nothing against github personally but since we're a GNU project, our Fearless Leader gets annoyed by RMS if we use non-free resources, and that is pretty fearsomely annoying. :-) _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9
