Why OOo not listed ? http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html The Summer of Code is Google's program designed to introduce students to the world of Open Source Software Development.
This Summer, don't let your programming skills lie fallow...Use them for the greater good of Open Source Software and computer science! Google will provide a $4500 award to each student who successfully completes an open source project by the end of the Summer. (payment details can be found in FAQ) By pairing applicants up with the proven wisdom and experience of established prominent open source organizations (listed below), we hope to make great software happen. If you can't come up with a great idea to submit, a number of our organizations have made idea lists available. Participating Organizations: The Python Software <http://www.python.org/psf/> Foundation (ideas <http://wiki.python.org/moin/CodingProjectIdeas> ) The Perl Foundation <http://www.perlfoundation.org/> (submission <http://www.perlfoundation.org/gc/grants/proposals.html> guidelines & ideas) The Apache <http://www.apache.org/> Software Foundation (ideas <http://wiki.apache.org/general/SummerOfCode2005> ) Ubuntu Linux <http://ubuntulinux.org/> (ideas <http://udu.wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyBounties> ) The Mono Project <http://mono-project.com/Main_Page> (ideas <http://www.mono-project.com/StudentProjects> ) The Gnome Foundation <http://www.gnome.org/> (ideas <http://www.gnome.org/bounties/Google.html> ) The Wine Project <http://www.winehq.org/> (ideas <http://www.winehq.org/site/contributing> ) The Subversion Project <http://subversion.tigris.org/> (ideas <http://subversion.tigris.org/project_tasks.html> ) Google <http://code.google.com/> Questions? We've put together a participant FAQ <http://code.google.com/summfaq.html> for you. Do you want to be a mentoring organization (it isn't too late!) or do you want to know more about the process? Read the Mentoring Organization FAQ <http://code.google.com/mentfaq.html> . The Deadline is June 14th. but the sooner you get yours in, the sooner you can start coding. Apply <http://code.google.com/soc_application.html> Today Mailing List List Description Summer-Discuss <http://groups-beta.google.com/group/summer-discuss> Discuss pretty much anything connected to the summer of code and the application process. Help us spread the word! Feel free to distribute the flyer <http://code.google.com/summerofcode.pdf> to your friends! When you're asked "What did you do over your summer break?" what will your answer be?
