This almost slipped past my radar. Is this something the DSpace community
might have a interest in participating within.
Unlike GSoC it is not "stipend" driven, but "award driven" and it is
oriented at High school students, not college students.
The objective is to get Highschool students exposed to Open Source by
getting them to contribute to Open Source projects at various levels
(coding, documentation, graphic design, etc).
thoughts?

Hi everyone,
Starting today we are accepting applications from organizations who have
participated in a previous Google Summer of Code (you!) to get involved with
our contest for 13-18 year olds, Google Code-in [0].
If you haven’t read up about Google Code-in, you can check out our
announcement [1] to this list from a couple weeks ago or read our blog post
[2] about the contest.
If your org has decided it would like to apply to participate in the
contest, you can fill out the application [3] on Melange now. The deadline
for applications is 29 October at 23:00 UTC.
Also, if you want to look over the rules for the contest before applying to
participate they can be found on the organization application [3] at the
bottom. They will also be posted on the Google Code-in website [0] in the
next couple days in other languages.
We hope your org will consider participating.
