Dear Apache Beam Developers, This is a friendly reminder that the *Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2025* application period is now open! You have until *April 8th, 2025* to submit your proposals.
We're eager to welcome new contributors to the Apache Beam community through this exciting program. As a reminder, you can find all Apache Software Foundation's program details here: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/programs/2025/organizations/apache-software-foundation Our specific project ideas for *Apache Beam *are available here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/GSoC+2025+Ideas+list#GSoC2025Ideaslist-Beam We strongly encourage you to review the project ideas and submit a well-crafted application. We will be carefully evaluating each proposal to ensure a successful and productive GSoC experience for both mentors and students. To help you with your application, we would recommend looking at https://google.github.io/gsocguides/student/writing-a-proposal and following that guidance. You also may be able to find examples of previous proposals at https://lists.apache.org/list?dev@beam.apache.org:2024-4:gsoc%20proposal. Don't let this opportunity pass you by!

And, if you have something interesting to share, consider submitting a talk to the upcoming Beam Summit (https://beamsummit.org/). We look forward to seeing your contributions to the Beam community in various ways! Best regards, XQ
