Hi, There's the possibility that we may be able to run an Outreachy Mentorship as we have some money left over from previous years. I'm looking for any existing developer that would like to mentor someone?
If you don't know Outreachy it provides internships in open source. They focus on "anyone from any background who faces underrepresentation, systemic bias, or discrimination in the technical industry where they are living". There's two sides to this coin, we need to find a project/mentor and someone who'd like to intern with Guix. If you'd like to mentor someone: - A project for the intern to work on - 5 hours per week of mentoring - including answering questions, reviewing contributions, and meeting with interns - A real-time meeting at least once a week - either through real-time chat, video conference, or phone - Detailed and timely review of contributions - if a mentor is unable to provide contribution review, they are responsible for finding community members who can - Guidance to interns about how to work in an open source community - Guidance to interns about time management There are different levels of project but I haven't quite got to the bottom of that yet. If you'd be interested or have thoughts please reply! Steve / Futurile [0] https://www.outreachy.org/
