---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Carol Smith <[email protected]> Date: Fri, Mar 19, 2010 at 2:00 AM Subject: List of Accepted Mentor Organizations Has Been Announced To: [email protected]
Hi everyone, The accepted mentor organizations for this year have been announced [0]. If you applied to be a mentoring organization, you should have already received a notification of your acceptance or rejection (sorry for the multiple emails). We accepted 151 total projects of which 19% were new. As with every year, we had to make some very tough decisions in 2010. We simply weren’t able to accept every great project that applied. Once again, we are also bidding fond farewell to some past participants in favor of bringing new projects into the program. We greatly appreciate everything they have contributed to the program in past years and hope they will remain actively involved in our community. We want to thank everyone for their applications and would encourage those who were not accepted to apply for future instances of the program. If you are a potential student for the program this year, now is the time to start talking to organizations about your ideas for projects. You have a week and a half before we begin accepting student applications on Monday, March 29 at 19:00 UTC. Use this time to meet your potential mentors and to discuss how you'd like to contribute to their organization, especially your ideas for improving their code base. Keep on eye on these program mailing lists, as we'll post notes about additional resources for learning about our mentoring organizations there. We will be having an IRC discussion for those organizations who were rejected this year and would like more information about why, however Leslie and I are both traveling to conferences today so we will only be online sporadically throughout the weekend. I will send an update to this mailing list when we figure out a good time for the discussion, but we aim to have it early next week. Thanks for your patience on this.
