Hi all,

please find below an information about a program similar to GSoC which is going to be started soon.

Is OMA interested in this program? We were not accepted as a mentoring organization at GSoC, but I think chances are much higher in the Semester of Code.

Unlike GSoC, there are no payments for students here (as far as I understood), but for OMV there is a chance to attract some students to get involved into development.

Hi everyone,

Just to let you know that Semester of Code is now open for registration. This is a programme that gets students involved in open source projects for course credit or as a contribution to their final year or masters projects. Its inspired by GSoC (hence the name), but is organised by a small consortium of companies and organisations based in the EU.

If you didn't get any takers for some of the ideas you put up for GSoC this year, or didn't have enough slots, this could be a good opportunity to give it another shot. Or you may have come up with more work that would suit a student project.

There are more details on how you get involved as a project here:

http://osswatch.jiscinvolve.org/wp/2014/08/06/vals-semester-of-code-open-for-project-idea-submissions/

You need to register your organisation by the 12th of September. There are no application requirements or financial considerations for this pilot programme.

There is also a FAQ page for the programme here: http://semesterofcode.com/?p=22

If you've got any questions, feel free to email me off-list.

Cheers,

- Scott
