Hi all, I got some messages about this, and I wanted to share the information for everyone's benefit. ASF's schedule for mentors is here [1]. The next upcoming date is, discussion of project ideas starting 2/22. I would encourage both mentors/applicants to discuss their ideas in the mailing list early on.
>From the GSoC mailing list, the required information will be the following (but ASF might ask for more information.): "a) a project title/description b) more detailed description of the project (2-5 sentences) c) expected outcomes d) skills required/preferred e) possible mentors f) expected size of project (90, 175 or 350 hour). And if possible, an easy, intermediate or hard/difficult rating of each project. This helps the more inexperienced folks not get overwhelmed and they can focus on reviewing easy project ideas." I hope this will help GSoC 2025 applicants with planning. And looking forward to another year of great contributions :) Ahmet [1] https://community.apache.org/gsoc/#prospective-asf-mentors-read-this
