Dear All,


This is a gentle reminder to submit the project ideas for OSGeo’s participation 
in Google Summer of Code 2026.


So far, we have only received the ideas submission from the pgRouting project: 
https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/wiki/GSoC-Ideas%3A-2026


Feel free to reach out to the OSGeo GSoC Admins if you have any questions or 
concerns.

Dear All,


Greetings! Wishing you all a very happy new year.


It is the time of the year to start preparing for OSGeo's participation in the 
Google Summer of Code 2026 [1]. With the great success of GSoC 2025 projects 
[2], we are highly excited and motivated to invite the OSGeo projects 
(Projects, Incubation projects, Guest Projects) to begin compiling the project 
ideas for GSoC 2026.


In order to participate in proposing ideas as a project under the OSGeo 
umbrella organization, you need to send us (admins:  <gsoc-admin at osgeo dot 
org>) the URL for your project's GSoC ideas Wiki page, or just reply to this 
email. If you are participating for the first time, then you may visit [3] for 
reference.


Please remember that every idea should indicate:

  1.  A title

  2.  Brief descriptions of projects that can be completed in ~175 hours or 
~350 hours of your GSoC contributor’s time (and labeled appropriately)

  3.  3 Mentors' Details - Name, Email (Primary and Supporting mentors)

  4.  For each project, a list of prerequisites, a description of programming 
skills needed, and an estimation of the difficulty level

  5.  A test for the students to submit to your evaluation. The test aims at 
evaluating if the student is capable of the project, so please design the test 
having in mind the basic skills required to complete the project.

The organization application period will be open till Feb 3, 2026. So, we 
expect all the URLs by Feb 2, 2026 (~9 days from now). Here is the complete 
GSoC 2026 timeline [4].


We have already received the ideas submission from the pgRouting project: 
https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/wiki/GSoC-Ideas%3A-2026


Note:

If you floated ideas in the past iterations of GSoC but couldn't progress 
ahead, then it is a great time to start working on those ideas again.


Thanks, and please forward the information to your respective project's mailing 
list! Always waiting for further queries. :)


(PS- A call for contributors to the OSGeo project ideas with instructions on 
interacting with projects will be sent soon, so please be ready to welcome new 
members to the community.)


Cheers,

Ashish for OSGeo GSoC Administration Team
