The subject of this email mentions GSoC, it's probably worth
clarifying that the GSoC process is still under way and there isn't
(as far as I know, I'm not involved myself) a confirmed list of
mentors and projects in place yet.
There is a confirmed list of 190 sponsor organizations, including PSF.
https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/list/public/google/gsoc2014
50 include 'python' in their tags.
PSF acts as an umbrella organization for multiple Python projects
https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2014
Core Python is the first listed of about 15.
core-mentorship is listed as the list for core Python GSOC projects. The
core Python ideas page is
https://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2014/python-core
Email (R. David Murray, Antoine Pitrou) and Idle (me, Tal Einat) are the
two project areas lists.
According to the GSOC timeline
https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2014
this is an 'Interim Period' and 'Would-be students discuss project ideas
with potential mentoring organizations.'
The OP is more than welcome to get
involved, and the core-mentorship list will provide help in getting up
to speed and starting to contribute, but it's not directly related to
GSoC. Becoming part of the development community is a great way to
prepare for a GSoC project when that starts up, though!
Our intention is that GSOC students be a part of the core development
community in that their code should be posted and reviewed on the
tracker and hopefully committed, just as with any other new developer on
the list.
