Hello,
Google Summer of code 2013 is accepting applications. Just like in the
past years, we need a few mentors to ensure a successful event.
This year we plan to get significantly better organized and make sure
the event is successful in measurable ways (finalized projects or
committed contributions to dmd/druntime/phobos etc). We have made a
mistake in the past of approving the GC project by Antti-Ville Tuuainen
who subsequently became unreachable to follow through with merging his
project in the mainline. We don't want to repeat such mistakes in the
future, which means a closer, stronger mentor/mentee relationship.
So please reply to this or email Walter and myself if you have the time
and inclination to mentor a student this summer. For a detailed mentor's
manual, peruse http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCMentoring/.
Thanks,
Andrei
Count me in! I really enjoyed last years edition and I'd definitely be up
for doing it again this year. Although I would be willing to work with
anybody that has a good idea, I think Mr. Bothe has an interesting idea
for this years work. Compiling D to CIL would be a huge boon to Mono-D as
it would make real-time CTFE evaluation a reality. Or at least get us on
the right path. We'll have to hammer out what can actually be done in
three months.
