Hello everybody, GSoC2012 has been announced [1]. The timeline for the initiative is up as well [2]. Relevant next dates are:
* February 27 19:00 UTC: Mentoring organizations can begin submitting applications to Google. * March 9 23:00 UTC Mentoring organization application deadline. * March 12-15: Google program administrators review organization applications. * March 16 19:00 UTC List of accepted mentoring organizations published on the Google Summer of Code 2012 site. As you all know, last year our application was unsuccessful, which is why I'd like us all to collaborate on putting Ubuntu's application as a mentoring organisation together. As far as I recall the particular point which was problematic the last time was a lack of distinct project ideas. Pointing to Ubuntu Brainstorm or a list of unfinished blueprints is not enough. We need a list of project ideas we'd be willing to mentor. There is a check list of things available we need to answer to be able to apply. [3] Please help filling out our application. This is important. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GoogleSoC2012 Have a great day, Daniel [1] http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2012/02/google-summer-of-code-2012-is-on.html [2] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2012 [3] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2012/faqs#mentoring_apply -- Get involved in Ubuntu development! developer.ubuntu.com/packaging Stay up to date: follow @ubuntudev on identi.ca/twitter.com/facebook.com -- ubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
