Hi everybody, The Apache Software Foundation is participating in GSoC again this year, and CouchDB is on the project list of course!
By the end of the summer, we hope you've above all, had fun, and we've enabled you to make a valued contribution, and ideally help you continue in your involvement with the CouchDB project. ## I'm a student, how do I start? Check out some of the ideas at http://s.apache.org/couchdb_gsoc2013 or suggest your own ones. Please subscribe to our developers mailing list mailto:dev@couchdb.apache.org http://couchdb.apache.org/#mailing-list and join us at #couchdb-dev on irc://irc.freenode.net/couchdb-dev to talk about what you're interested in. You'll need to pick your projects and submit proposals from 22nd April to 3rd May. ## I'm interested in being a mentor for the CouchDB project! Thanks! Please read up on http://community.apache.org/guide-to-being-a-mentor.html and contact dch@ for more details. Previous mentors suggest the effort is around 5h per week on average. Please review the topics list and feel free to make any adjustments. Please pass this on to your local user groups, universities, etc. Thanks!
