Actually the key word here would be "Blessed".
Btw, I am not grizzled, maybe seasoned.

You know, the other meaning...
griz·zle
1.  to complain; whimper; whine.

I am starting to have a dejà vu here...

The pay is pretty good for me, not that I would complain about a raise
or anything.  The student pay scales are based on the number of
credits you have completed with your school.

you just turn them into ones ;)

seriously though, as a former intern of Ron's I can only recommend it!
there's no better way to learn new skills and Ron is a great mentor
and a fine master of the programming sword.

everybody who fits the criteria should consider applying for the job!

That's awesome.
I am really searching for something sane to do in summer, and since i
have no qualifications but my finals yet, i'm deeply grateful about
such chance. I would love spending my time with Plan9 instead of a
stupid job here in my area.

>Seriously? What's the pay look like?
I would even pay *for* it, if i had the money*g*

But they will rather want a bit more experienced people, won't they?

clean start is better. We have a better idea of what will and won't
work. But if you had a great idea, just resubmit.

And any US citizens on this list can apply to sandia.gov to work for
me on Plan 9 this summer in california.

foreigners are harder but I am hoping not impossible -- still working on it.

I would love to be a student, especially cause this year I really have
a lot of time to spend until i will do a winter semester.

Why didn't you just use that old list of ideas? I think there was more
than one page already, full with ideas from last year. Fuck, it feels
like i did my last years application like a few weeks ago. I must have
wasted my time in a very stupid way.

[9fans] GSOC 2008

2008-02-27 Thread Eric Van Hensbergen
(reposting as my initial post bounced because it had too many recipients)
(Cross-posted into inferno-list, v9fs-developer, plan9-gsoc, and
plan9-gsoc-mentors)

Okay, from the deafening silence outside of students and project
nominations, it sound like we better get cracking.  At the very least
folks should start thinking up project ideas and people should decide
whether or not they will be available to mentor.  For folks unaware of
GSoC (aka Google Summer of Code), here's the link:
http://code.google.com/soc and also a link to last year's Plan 9 GSoC:
http://gsoc.cat-v.org/

I started a toplevel wiki page:
http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/GSoC2008/index.html for people
to post interest and ideas -- although I think it would be a good idea
to post project ideas in the gsoc mailing list (one message per idea)
to make discussion easier -- vetted ideas can then be transfered to
the wiki.

Its probably also appropriate to start discussing guidelines for
project ideas and rules of engagement for how we are going to manage
project selection, mentor assignment, and student selections this year
as well as discuss volunteers and nominations for project
administrators.

All of this should probably happen in the plan9-gsoc mailing list
(http://groups.google.com/group/plan9-gsoc) to allow folks to opt-in
to the noise, so this will be my last cross-post.  I'm cc:'ing the
inferno list and v9fs-developer list as those projects participated in
the Plan 9 GSoC last year (and will likely do so again this year).
