Thank you everyone. I had sent an email to mentors before but did not get a response.
My understanding was that Feb 3rd was the deadline for organizations to send applications and the projects lists could be updated later. Isn't that true? I have created now three jira issues with the gsoc, gsoc2026 and mentor labels. Will they appear at the page at some point or we completely lost our chance? :( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/GSoC+2026+Ideas+list Best -- Zoi On 2026/02/08 09:44:48 sebb wrote: > On Sun, 8 Feb 2026 at 02:52, Maxim Solodovnik <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hello :) > > > > from mobile (sorry for typos ;) > > > > > > On Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 04:17 Dimitris Soumis <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > On Sat, Feb 7, 2026 at 2:05 PM Jie-Kai Chang <[email protected]> > > > wrote: > > > > > > > Hi I am Mahout Committer and I am interested in being the mentor for > > > > Mahout in GSoC > > > > I can't find the mentor@communitity discussion and want to know how to > > > > subscribe to it as well. > > > > > > > > > > Hi, you can subscribe to the list by sending an email > > > to [email protected] > > > as all of the ASF mailing lists.
