It's not »willing to try out« what is needed here, but instead you need
to convice us and the other GNU GSoC mentors that it is *your project*
that should be accepted, why and that you're the right guy to be working
on this.  :-)


At which level do the existing LISP/Perl/Python bindings work?  Wrap the
C entry/callback points provided by libtrivfs/libnetfs/libdiskfs?  In the
course of the Java bindings project, we established that we'd rather
attack the RPC interface directly, that is, parse (in whichever way) RPC
declaration files (such as the *.defs files used with MIG), and handle
the marshalling in the respective language itself, the mach_msg (plus
perhaps a handful of system calls) being the only external interface.

There are people available in the GNU Hurd community, who know their
share of the Mach RPC interface and surely would be willing to help with
that aspect; what a GSoC project's mentor needs to offer guidance with is
how to express/design/implement such a RPC interface in the respective
programming language/environment (such as the object-oriented hierarchy
devised for the Java bindings).  Anatoly, would you be able to be a
mentor for the Python bindings?

 Great!  Then please apply as a mentor on

And I applied as a student for the python bindings last night after
talking with anatoly about it for a while yesterday. Still in the
format of I'd like to, but at least it's there :)

Perl Binding GSOC mentors?

I'm interested in taking on the perl binding gsoc project, but it seems
that there are currently no listed mentors for this project. anyone
want to step up? If not, I'll be willing to try out the python
bindings, assuming that anatoly is still up to it.

[Carol Smith] [GSoC Mentors Announce] Google Summer of Code 2013

[Thomas Schwinge]

Hi!

There will be a Google Summer of Code 2013, see below.  Assuming GNU is
again going to apply and accepted as a mentoring organization -- if we're
interested, we can also already begin thinking about projects to propose.
http://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/community/gsoc/project_ideas/ has
the current list; to be updated.  Speak up (or directly edit the pages)
if you have any suggestions!

| Hi GSoC mentors and org admins,
| 
| We've announced that we're doing Google Summer of Code 2013 [1]. Yay!
| 
| If you would like to help spread the word about GSoC, we have presentations
| [2], logos [3], and flyers [4] for you to use. Please host meetups, tell
| your friends and colleagues about the program, go to conferences, talk to
| people about the program, and just generally do all the awesome
| word-of-mouth stuff you do every year to promote the program.
| 
| The GSoC calendar, FAQ, and events timeline have all been updated with this
| year's important dates, so please refer to those for the milestones for
| this year's program. NB: the normal timeline for the program has been
| modified for this year. You'll probably want to examine the dates closely
| to make sure you know when important things are happening.
| 
| Please consider translating the presentations and/or flyers into your
| native language and submitting them directly to me to post on the wiki.
| Localization for our material is integral to reaching the widest possible
| audience around the world. If you decide to translate a flyer, please fill
| out our form to request a thank you gift for your effort. [5]
| 
| If you decide to host a meetup, please email me to let me know the date,
| time, and location so I can put it on the GSoC calendar. Also, remember to
| take pictures at your meetup and write up a blog post for our blog using
| our provided template for formatting [6]. If you need promotional items for
| your attendees, please fill out our form [7] to request some; we're happy
| to send some along. We can provide up to about 25 pens, notebooks, or
| stickers and/or a few t-shirts. Please keep in mind, though, that shipping
| restrictions and timeline vary country-to-country; request items early to
| make sure they get there on time! If you have questions about hosting
| meetups, please see the section in our FAQ [8].
| 
| Please also consider applying to participate as an organization again this
| year or maybe joining as a mentor for your favorite organization if they
| are selected this year.
| 
| We rely on you for your help for the success of this program, so thank you
| in advance for all the work you do!

 go *again* to the above URL (make sure you reload the page if it's in

This already changed: Now there is an extra register as mentor link,
which hopefully should make the process more straightforward.

 Leave a message saying that you want to mentor for the Hurd, and
 (hopefully) some time soon you should get a confirmation.

I forgot to mention that you should also drop a note on the ML...

GSoC Mentors

[olafBuddenhagen]

Hi,

First of all, for those who haven't heard yet: we are participating in
Google Summer of Code again, under the GNU Project umbrella.

Now that the new GSoC software is finally rolled out on
google-melange.com, mentors can sign up for the organisations. It's
about time: students will start sending their applications on monday!

So if you want to mentor students for the Hurd, please sign up for GNU.

BTW, we already have a couple of promising student candidates asking
stuff on IRC :-)
