[Bf-committers] Google Summer of Code 2021

2021-01-31 Thread Ton Roosendaal via Bf-committers

Hi everyone,

I have completed the application forms. The biggest change in 2021 is 
that student projects will be possible asĀ  part-time activity for 10 
weeks, averaging 175 hours total (3 hours per day).


That also means that project ideas have to become quite much smaller. We 
have until Friday February 19th to complete a good ideas page.


https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/GSoC/Ideas_Suggestions

Note: only active members of one of the Blender module teams (candidate 
mentors) add ideas there. Discuss or check it with them if you have 
ideas. Also read the Ideas list guidelines:


https://google.github.io/gsocguides/mentor/defining-a-project-ideas-list

It's possible to define ideas that are risky, explorative, prototypes or 
offer new perspecitves.

Also infrastructure/automation tasks are possible.

Let me or Dalai know if you want to be added as a mentor.

Thanks,

-Ton-
