Just a quick question on this. Seeing that there will be some members of ComDev as well as PMCs at ApacheCon, is it likely that any in-person mentoring/hackathon/MeetUps/* will take place there? I know it's not common practice for GSoC, but I was curious if we'd be open to anything like that. Humans huddling and all...

I will be there as well and also have a talk accepted on the same topic - http://sched.co/2P6f Please let me know if you would like to promote anything specific on GSoC, I will be happy to help and will appreciate your efforts.

Yesterday, we have been accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015 [1],[2]. This means that over the summer, our committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will be working on our projects. The program helps us not only to get some code written but also to introduce 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 ideas with the respective projects and begin drafting proposals. An extensive list of already existing project ideas is available at [4]. The actual application phase is from March 16 until March 27, coding will 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?
