With a surge of mentors stepping up at the last minute, BRL-CAD applied and was
once again accepted into the Google Code-In (GCI) competition! Thank you to
all that are willing to help.
We have a little over two weeks to define initial tasks and get ready. I’ll
reach out to those willing to mentor separately with details. Help from
everyone getting set up is appreciated. We especially need some brainstorming
help defining “sets” of useful tasks that result in a useful feature..
There are two types of GCI tasks: beginner and regular tasks. For beginner, we
assume absolutely nothing about their experience or background. Downloading
and installing BRL-CAD is a good example. Regular tasks have to have any
requirements written down and still keep the work in the 2-4 hour timeframe.
Feel free to brainstorm task ideas on IRC or here on the list. The
doc/STRATEGY file in our repo (
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/brlcad/code/brlcad/trunk/doc/STRATEGY
<http://svn.code.sf.net/p/brlcad/code/brlcad/trunk/doc/STRATEGY> ) lists a lot
of areas of interest and priority projects that might be a good starting point.
Cheers!
Sean
