Google's announcement about 2014 is very interesting, it appears they are starting much earlier than this year.
The calendar suggests they will only confirm organisations around March/April though In my experience, we had the most intense interest from students after Debian was confirmed as an organisation. It could be one of two things: a) the students are discovering Debian when they see us in a list on Google's web site b) the students are not certain about investing time/effort with organisations before the organisations have some official involvement What do other people think? Is the Google announcement sufficient for Debian to start engaging with potential mentors and students and encouraging them to make very basic steps to research project areas? _______________________________________________ Soc-coordination mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/soc-coordination
