Hi Avik,
The time window of the projects will be from January to June approximately.
I don't know what "credit bureau integration efforts" are... maybe Myrle
could help on that.
Best regards,
Antón

Hi Myrle / Anton,
What will be the time window of the projects undertaken by the students?
I couldn't leverage the GCI program much in 2014 much so I am willing
to work with this program if it's starting anytime soon.
Is further credit bureau integration efforts something that can be
accommodated under this program?
Regards,
Avik.

Hey all,
For those of you who don't follow comdev: Antón, in Spain is looking
for student projects.
Is this something any of our community-organizer types at Fineract
would like to hook into our project? Or do we have enough on our
plates with the GSoC, Google Code-In, and etc?
Greets,
Myrle

Subject: ASF student collaboration program
To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
Hi all,
We (the VigoJUG) are running a collaboration program (pro bono work)
with the University of Vigo (Spain) to introduce students to Open
Source projects as part of the end of their studies. It's the
equivalent to two full signatures. The idea is to do a proof of
concept with two students this year and open it to more of them in the
following courses if it's a success.
We would like to choose some of the ASF projects and we know the ASF
has been involved in a few student programs, mostly Google
Summer of Code but also a few others directly with universities. So we
would like to know more about it if it makes sense in our case.
In our opinion the program is a win-win for everyone:
* Students from UVigo: evangelize open-source and get real
experience.
* Senior Engineers from VigoJUG: get familiar with interesting
projects + help new engineers in our area.
* Teachers from UVigo: they have interest in many projects of the ASF
but they are a bit lost, this is a great opportunity for them to
know more and look for new opportunities of collaboration.
* ASF: some fresh blood to some projects :-)
We would need from the ASF:
* Some projects to work with. Issues related to automate performance
tests or profiling would be great because they have little
impact in
the project and we have some experience on that and running some
workshops on that.
* Some initial mentorship. It should be little work, most of the
mentoring should be done by the senior engineers of the VigoJUG but
some initial guidance would be very helpful.
I'm not familiar with this list (yet) so I hope this email is fine
here :-)
Best regards,
Antón
