Hi all, If you're a student interested in Open Source (or know some students), now is the time to act to get involved in Google's wonderful Summer of Code program.
http://code.google.com/soc/ Each year, Google offers students the opportunity to spend their summer vacation coding rather than flipping burgers. You propose a project, and if selected, you're assigned a mentor and provided with a stipend. It is a competitive program to get into, but offers an amazing amount of real-world experience and the ability to get seriously involved in an open source project of your choosing. Please help us get the word out to students and remind them that the deadline is fast approaching (noon on Friday!) Thanks, Eric P.S. Many of The Perl Foundation mentors are local to Portland and PSU is also participating as a mentor organization. http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?gsoc http://summer.cs.pdx.edu _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
