Yesterday, we havebeen accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015 [1],[2]. This means thatover the summer, our committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will beworking on our projects. The program helps us not only to get some code written but also tointroduce students into open source development and hopefully recruit some new long-term committers.More information on the program is available at [3]. Students are now encouraged to discuss ideaswith the respective projects and begin drafting proposals. An extensive list of already existingproject ideas is available at [4]. The actual application phase is from March 16 until March 27,codingwill take place from May 25 to August 21. See [5] for the detailed timeline.Can you please run any press release past us (dev@community.apache.org<mailto:dev@community.apache.org><mailto:dev@community.apache.org <mailto:dev@community.apache.org>>) before publishing?Thanks,Uli[1] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2015[2] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org2/google/gsoc2015/apache[3] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2015/help_page[4] http://s.apache.org/gsoc2015ideas[5] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2015
