Re: [FFmpeg-devel] Outreach Program For Women
Hi Mosha, I recommend that you ask someone to give you something to do or you look at old google summer of code or outreachy (it was called opw) page and pick what you like to work on or pick up something to do from the ticket. (And again talk to relevant people to ask exactly or overall what to do.) I decided to apply for outreachy when ffmpeg was not listed in outreachy for this summer not far before the application deadline. I was already working on something on ffmpeg. So I contacted outreachy organizer and ffmpeg people (people listed old outreachy and google summer of code) by saying I wanted to do outreachy with ffmpeg and they decided ffmpeg will be part of outreachy for this summer after not so long. So I have no idea how they decided to join outreachy or not but I can say it can happen if you want make it happen. Sadly I had to withdrawal my application and I felt pretty sad/bad about it (because I understood that ffmpeg people had to fund raise to support these interns not just to take care of them.. So once I knew I couldn't do.. I even tried to convince my friend to do it..) But it seemed that it worked out pretty well with this summer's person (Ludmila) so you can just start I think. Also actually I heard that selection process is pretty competitive. (They have a tons of qualified candidates by the time they take a pick) So earlier is better I think. I hope it goes well and good luck~.

[FFmpeg-devel] Outreach Program For Women
Hi ffmpeg! I'm interested in doing an OPW(Outreach Program for Women) internship from December 2015 with ffmpeg. I would like to know if ffmpeg will be participating in this coming round. If it is, How can I get started? Thank you very much and looking forward to hearing from you!

FFmpeg is written in C not C# though maybe you want to write a GUI to some of the tools, but time is a bit short with the deadlines of OPW also passing a qualification task is mandatory, which requires submiting a patch, and passing review, which generally requires multiple iterations. So if you think you can pass qualification before oct 31 then sure you can try to submit an application really quickly before its deadline today. Also note, we might end up having more qualified students than slots on the 31st ...

Hello I am a final year student and developed interest in programming sometimes back.The idea was just to develop an application.In order to do so I searched internet settled on developing a windows app since its resources were abundant.But then,I realized that I need to learn C# and voila!!,I did.I have been practicing it which seems like for a while now and now is the right time to take it to the next step.Is there any way I could contribute to your projects? ___ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
