Dear Django developers, I want to ask why there were no django projects for GSoC 2018? Furthermore, are there any potential mentors for this year's Google Summer of Code that I can have a conversation with as I want to get more clarity on the application process for Django and talk to them about

Hi, I'm not sure that the plan is fleshed out in enough detail (compare it to https://gist.github.com/chrismedrela/82cbda8d2a78a280a129 and https://github.com/django/deps). That level of detail is needed to give us confidence that you might be able to deliver what you promise. On Monday, March

Why do you consider is as not a good idea ? I'm really, I say really interested in working with this organisation during this GSoC. How can we have a prior experience contributing from django if we don't start someday ? On Sunday, 25 March 2018 02:57:57 UTC+1, Tim Graham wrote: > > Hi, I don't t

Hi, I don't think this idea is suitable and as the proposal deadline is two days away, I don't think you'll be able to develop a successful proposal so late in the process. As https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/SummerOfCode2018 says, you should have some prior experience contributing to Django

Hi Priyansh, Your proposal isn't really detailed enough for me to understand what the outcome of your project would be (I haven't watched Russell's talk that you linked). What are the "big wins"? There are projects like https://github.com/potatolondon/djangae, which allows using Django with Go
