Here is a summary:
1. Organizations apply ("Orgs" = e.g. Mozilla, Wikimedia Foundation,
Gnome, GNU and ... Sugar!)
2. Organizations have Org admins.
3. Organizations get accepted or rejected.
[We are here, with Sugar accepted as an organization.]
4. Organizations organize themselves to have mentors and a series of
proposals. A proposal is a project and a student.
5. Organizations ask Google for N slots.
6. Google decide how many slots each Org receives.
7. Organizations decide which projects will get the slots.
8. Students and mentors start working for three months.
Notes from past experience (I mentored three projects):
- It's better to works with students that are already members of the
community. It's just too frustrating to mentor students who do not
contribute to the project after they got paid by Google (while you
were not, btw.)
- Good mentoring takes a *lot* of time. I mean: a lot.
- Better to design a proposal that is both easy and motivating than
too challenging (and quickly discouraging).
- Write down the reasons why you would fail the student in the
mid-term evaluation, and tell the student. E.g. I had to fail a
student that only produced specifications and no code, I thought it
was obvious that we wanted some code for the mid-term, I realize he
might not have plan accordinly.
- Mhh... that's all I can think of for now!
