 Hi,

 Latest news from the google summer of code: students have completed their 
 proposals. We have 2 proposals for convert scripts to builtins, and 4 for 
 unify git branch, git tag and git for-each-ref (plus some out-of-scope 
 proposals). See http://git.github.io/SoC-2015-Ideas.html for more details 
 about the projects.

 We have to request slots before April 13th.

 My guess is that we'll request 2 slots, and from previous discussions I don't 
 think we will have difficulties to find enough co-mentors. Still, if you're 
 interested in mentoring a project, now would be a good time to say so.

 Without committing to mentor a student, you can also join the Git 
 organisation on https://www.google-melange.com/ if you want to 
 see/review/rate/discuss students proposals.

 Stefan: you said you were interested in mentoring. If it's still the case, 
 then please create an account on melange and request the mentor role for 
 Git.

I did say that though I'd guess a Co-mentor role would fit me better.

I've seen Jeff wants to mentor the Unifying git branch -l, git tag
-l, and git for-each-ref where there are 4 applicants for this topic.
Though I guess we'd only accept one applicant here as the topic is
quite the same all of them proposed.

There are 2 proposals to rewrite shell scripts to builtins, which
Dscho is interested in mentoring one of them, which I'd like to
co-mentor then.

The other proposals do not look as convincing to me as I'd step up as
a main mentor.

Stefan

Thanks, Matthieu, for keeping our GSoC activities moving forward. And
thank you to all of the folks who have been helping review microprojects
and proposals.

If there are any other long-time community members who want to read and
comment on the proposals, you can sign up through
https://www.google-melange.com and request to be a mentor for git (you
do not have to mentor, but that is the access level where you get to see
the proposals).
