Mentors - javydb, legoktm Your comments and feedback are welcome at the proposal and its parent tasks. We have couple of projects coming up from the Community Wishlist survey, and thanks to the Wikidata team too for their help. We selected three[1] of our Outreachy interns for GSoC, as their mentors and org admins agreed. For the selected applicants, the community bonding period will begin shortly, and you can find out how to make maximum out of it in our *Life of a successful project* doc[2]. Edits are welcome on that document too, to make things easy for the interns. For applicants who came up with a strong proposal, and couldn't make it for this round, you can plan to work on the same ( if your mentors agree too ). You can apply with the same for a future round considering consensus and eligibility. We have marked rejected proposal tasks as declined, but feel free to implement, in case the community and mentors seem interested. Consider notifying your siblings about the upcoming Google Code In ( g.co/gci ) round too, if they are < 18 years of age and do take a look at Wikimedia PEG[3]. Thanks to Sumit[4] and Niharika for co-organizing this round with me, and Quim for his time. You can find the GSoC-16 phab project at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/google-summer-of-code-2016/ for a better view.
