Urgent: we need projects (with mentors) for a gsoc-like project with Canadian universities (CANOSP)
Hello fellows The kde community, represented by me (Tomaz Canabrava) and Aniqa Khokhar, had a really nice meeting with CANOSP - a coalition of universities from Canada - with the intention of hosting a few projects for the students to work on. Differently from gsoc, the students will not work alone but in groups of theee to four, and they will also not write a project to implement, but implement something that the application needs - with the hints of the mentor. It’s expected that the projects are technically challenging and that it has either real world usage or can be interesting on a university context. The project will run for a semester within the universities, with one local mentor for each team (a uni professor) and a kde mentor. This is a great opportunity for us to improve the entry barrier in Canada - as, from what I understand we have almost zero developers. I’ll wait for projects for two weeks before sending the names to the CANOSP organization Best regards, Tomaz
