Hello, I'm pleased to announce that the winter/spring Rust and Servo interns through the GNOME Outreach Program for Women ( https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen ) have been chosen. The program starts December 10 and runs until March 10.
Nif Ward (IRC nick: nif) will be interning on Rust, working to develop a full-fledged B-tree library. Nif is a senior graduating this fall in computer science from Oberlin College in Ohio, USA. I will be her mentor. Isabelle Carter (IRC nick: ibnc) will be interning on Servo, working to add support for fixed positioning. Isabelle is on leave from her undergraduate degree in mathematics, and will be working from Springfield, Missouri, USA. Lars Bergstrom will be her mentor. We had many qualified applicants for Rust and Servo's first foray into OPW, so it's an honor to be chosen for this program. Please be friendly to nif and ibnc if you see them on #rust! Depending how this round of OPW goes, Rust and/or Servo may participate in a future iteration, so if you're interested in applying, then keep watching for more announcements. In addition, internships at Mozilla working on Rust and Servo (look for the "Research Engineering" listing; paid, on-site in the Bay Area) are open to all graduate students (undergraduate students with research experience have been considered in the past): http://careers.mozilla.org/ . Thanks are due to the Rust and Servo teams -- particularly Lars Bergstrom, Brian Anderson, and Jack Moffitt -- for helping many people apply for the program, and to the Mozilla coordinator for OPW, Larissa Shapiro, for their efforts.
