Dear Nitish, I'm sorry, Werner and me are hard to participate to GSoC 2024. I've not heard from Alexei whether he can or he will, but I guess the FreeType project would be unable to have a project in GSoC 2024.
-- I don't know any existing modern communication channels for young people, like Discord or Slack. Do you know any existing channel which you want the developers to check the discussion? Regards, mpsuzuki On 2024/02/22 8:10, Nitish Jha wrote:
Hello everyone, I'm Nitish, a computer science student from India. I'm eager to contribute to FreeType for Google Summer of Code 2024, and I have a few questions. As I was exploring the idea list, I noticed that the build system project was listed as an idea for GSoC 23. I'm interested in this project, but I'm uncertain if the ideas listed on https://freetype.org/gsoc.html are intended for GSoC 24. At the top of the page, it states, "The FreeType project participates in Google Summer of Code 2023. Here is our list of possible projects." If these ideas are not for GSoC 24, could you please direct me to where I can find the ideas for GSoC 24? Additionally, I'm curious if there are any communication channels like Discord or Slack available for FreeType, where contributors can discuss project ideas and collaborate effectively. Thank you for your assistance.
