I believe this would be the email: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/291c99821cecb05e5dedbd3818ac19c73b9584c6795f602928780b14@%3Cdev.diversity.apache.org%3E And the following would qualify that recommendation a bit: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/0f2f99adf9375ebbfb7ba0a9712e2ea5bb9c3f7a83e956d167a5d7e8@%3Cdev.diversity.apache.org%3E Assuming there are sponsors (which at this point appears to be a safe assumption), there still would need to be a selection criteria applied by somebody other than Outreachy. Perhaps by the sponsor(s), but ideally (to my mind) by the ASF. Question for Roman and other ASF Directors: is it fair to assume that from a selection point of view, Outreachy is sufficiently similar to GSoC, so something along the following lines would suffice: Would you be comfortable if the D&I committee were to adopt/adapt the GSoC process? http://community.apache.org/mentee-ranking-process.html If not, what additional constraints need to be met? Note: I am explicitly not asking about any financial aspects of this - there I am assuming that if sponsors were to bypass the ASF (with the ASF's blessing!) that would be one way to resolve that issue; once we have established one possible solution that should give us breathing room to explore if other solutions are possible. > Sage Sharp > Outreachy Organizer - Sam Ruby
