Re: GSoC 2020
Hello Jackson Isaac I went through Buildbot project ideas for GSoC 2020 and this project idea caught my attention 'Add support for running worker on non-python platforms'. I have good experience with python and C++. I went through the project idea abstract, but still I would like to request more resources. Is the project about implementing only worker in C++ ? What steps do I need to take further for a successful project proposal?

Currently we have mentors that can assist you on: - Buildbot related project - Macports-base (potential mentors mcalhoun and satraul) Ideas List: https://trac.macports.org/wiki/SummerOfCode -- Jackson Isaac

Unfortunately, our web-app mentors cannot continue due to the current situation, and we support them in their decision. Currently we have mentors for the following projects (If I understand correctly from Ideas list): - Buildbot - MacPorts base (Improving the Command Line Tool UX [1]) - MacPorts base (Update Orphaned Ports [2]) To get a better understanding of macports-base you may also see our introductory video at [3].
