Hello,
(cross-posted message; please keep eventual comments on freebsd-hackers@)
The FreeBSD project has been accepted to the Google Code-In 2011 contest.
http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2011/11/google-code-in-2011-participating.html
We have proposed 50 tasks so far, and more are still coming!
This is an event similar to the Google Summer of Code, but is targetted to
people in the 13-17 age range. Young people will be working on
FreeBSD-related tasks for the next weeks.
If you know any potential candidates, feel free to forward this message.
Brief summary:
T-shirts and possibility of earning some $$$ for participants.
The best participants get a chance to see the Google complex in Mountain View,
Silicon Valley, California, USA.
