Just a quick question for the DConf organizers regarding
submissions.
It would be really great if any Google Summer of Code students
students were invited to DConf and given the opportunity to
present their proposals to the D Community. However given the
timeline, we likely won't have any accepted proposals at the
DConf deadline.
If things go well and our organizational bid is successful, could
we tentatively plan to have a GSOC session where they presented
their proposals.
I think it would be too much for a student to give a 45-50 minute
presentation, but if we could get more than one student (or
mentors) to participate, maybe a quick overview of each proposal
could take up a single presentation slot.
Then there is of course the issue of getting poor students to
DConf, however given its (sort of) central location for US
students it might be possible.
I know there are a lot of 'ifs' there, but if we could pull
something off it would really help the students bond with the D
Community.
Cheers,
Craig
