Thanks for the summary! I'm happy to be the admin, since I'm not expecting ;-) Or to co-admin if someone else wants the job.
(Full disclosure: I haven't been much involved in the ASF side of GSoC in the past, but I've worked on documentation for the webapp, and done mentoring, as part of my 20% time at work. I'm employed by Google, but this isn't part of my official "day job" stuff there :-) ) Noirin On Fri, Jan 29, 2010 at 12:59 AM, Ross Gardler <[email protected]> wrote: > > Congrats right back at you. > > There are a few main pockets of activity: > > - ramp up (applying to the program, internal publicity, collecting > documentation, answering mentor questions) - about 2 weeks of activity > > - evaluation of proposals (the process is well defined now, takes about 4 > weeks of 4-8 hours per week, with a couple of frantic IRC sessions at the > end of the period) > > - mid term reviews - ensuring all mentors have reviews in (not too hard now > as the new webapp sends out mails, just a couple of hours a week for two > weeks) > > - full term reviews - as for mid terms > > - wrap up (ensuring the ASF bill for it, possibly attending the mentor > summit in Mountain View, thanking people etc.) just a few hours + the > optional summit > > > Ongoing there is the occasional issue with a mentor or student to deal with. > In a bad year this can be a few hours a week, in a good year a few hours > over the whole GSoC period.
