Hi,

Yes, on GSoC not being an internship. I have been correcting many people
myself since I became aware of it.

Glide, please note that Google Summer of Code FAQ says that
GSoC is not considered to be an internship.

https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/faq

"Is GSoC considered an internship, a job, or any form of employment?

No. GSoC is an activity that the student performs as an independent developer 
for which he/she is paid a stipend."

I speculate that part of the reason for this is that "internship" is
ambiguous and has different meanings across different cultures.

Hello Vipul,

I checked out your blog post and i really like your blog in general.

But there was a part when you said this:  "Again, GSoC is *not* an
internship, it is simply a program. Nothing more, nothing less.". Well, i
think GSoC is a summer internship program by google. I believe you can put
it that way. But correct me if i'm wrong.

By the way, are you on instagram? I have a bit of an audience in the coding
space. I would love to post your blog post in a story and link to your
account by mentioning you in the story.

Thanks.
