The Apache Software Foundation was accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015[1], and there are a great number of potential projects for students to work on across the ASF (see a list of all ASF GSoC 2015 project ideas[2]). Among them, several relate to Apache Mesos[3] and Apache Aurora[4]; let’s see some summer interns contributing to Mesos!
*The deadline for students to apply is 3/27/2015 at 19:00 UTC*; if you’re interested in contributing I would suggest chiming-in on the relevant JIRA issues, jumping in on the IRC channel, and potentially making a contribution.
