Hi all,
I'm sending this email to the list and BCC to all those who applied personally or on the list so you all receive the same information. If you are not already subscribed to the list I recommend you subscribe: https://lists.debian.org/debian-outreach The other co-mentors and I are having a discussion about our selection criteria. Before we propose any more tasks or tests for you to do, I'd like to suggest that you make sure you are registered in the Google portal: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com and begin a draft proposal with answers to the questions you can complete quickly. If you already made any public code contributions in the last 12 months using the skills for this project (Python and PyQt) now is a good time to put together a list of those links. To write your draft, please see my earlier email and the Debian template: https://lists.debian.org/debian-outreach/2018/03/msg00069.html In the past, we also asked students to create a wiki page: https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2013/StudentApplicationTemplate https://wiki.debian.org/GSoC/StudentWikiPages but now Google has their registration system where you have to submit your proposal and the Debian mentors will have a meeting shortly where we will decide if we still want wiki pages. You can still create a basic personal page on the wiki such as this: https://wiki.debian.org/DanielPocock One of the most difficult tasks for us mentors is that we have to choose only one applicant and decline many other very good applicants. Therefore, at the same time as making an application to this project, I would also encourage you to make applications to 2 other organizations in GSoC. Thank you for your interest in this topic. Regards, Daniel
