All project ideas for Outreachy need to be submitted by October 10

2018-10-01 Thread Marina Zhurakhinskaya via desktop-devel-list
Hi all,

The GNOME Foundation has confirmed funding for three spots in Outreachy for the 
December round! If you would like to mentor this round, please head to 
https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/gnome/submit-project/ as soon as 
possible and submit your project idea there. All project ideas need to be added 
in the Outreachy's application system by mentors by October 10 and approved by 
coordinators by October 16. Only ideas approved in the system by October 16 
will be available for Outreachy this round, so even if you are working with a 
prospective candidate on a project idea, you have to add it by October 10 to 
provide enough time for the triage committee (Matthias Clasen, Allan Day, and 
Sriram Ramkrishna) to review it by October 16. Mentors or applicants will not 
be able to propose new project ideas for this round of Outreachy after that.

Because GNOME only usually has a few participants in Outreachy, we are looking 
to offer projects that are most strategic for GNOME. These include, but are not 
limited to, projects in the area of privacy, GTK+, core experience, core 
applications, developer experience, and development infrastructure.

Outreachy application deadline is October 30. Please also consider applying or 
encouraging others to apply with the help of the resources at 
https://www.outreachy.org/promote/ More information about GNOME's participation 
in Outreachy is available at https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreach/Outreachy

Please feel free to e-mail gnome-outreachy-l...@gnome.org , which is a private 
mailing list with Outreachy coordinators and mentors for GNOME, with any 
questions.

Thanks,
Marina

GNOME 3.30 flatpak runtimes available on flathub

2018-10-01 Thread Abderrahim Kitouni
Hi,

The flatpak story for GNOME 3.30 wasn't very smooth as we moved away
from building the runtimes from gnome-sdk-images to the
BuildStream-based gnome-build-meta, and moved from freedestkop-sdk 1.6
to 18.08. The wait is now over as the GNOME 3.30 flatpak runtimes are
now available on flathub.

If you find any problem, please file an issue at
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta/issues

Cheers,

Abderrahim Kitouni
