Quick reminder: If you think something would be a good project for a student, put it on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects . I suggest we scope these proposals at about 6 weeks of coding work to ensure we dedicate enough time (out of the 3-month GSoC period) to bugfixing and code review. Past proposals often allotted either no time or about 2 weeks for merging with trunk, pre-deploy code review, and integration. That's not enough. Basically, if you think a project might take about 2 weeks for you to code, go ahead and put it on that list. Students run into lots of problems, and your 2-week project is someone else's whole summer. -- Sumana Harihareswara Engineering Community Manager Wikimedia Foundation _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
