REGARDING GSOC 2017
I just wanted to know how one should get started with the project. I am a B.Tech Computer Science second year student. So how should I get into this. I would be really enlightened if you tell me the same. Regards, Rashi
Re: Regarding participation in GSOC 2017 - Apache Mahout
Trevor, The student needs to submit a proposal for GSOC on the official GSOC website and compete with all others for the spots that will be assigned to ASF. If your project wants to propose an idea for GSOC, record that in JIRA and add gsoc2017 as a label, so it is listed in the list of ideas from ASF. If you want to become a mentor for GSOC, you should first subscribe to ment...@community.apache.org by sending an email to mentors-subscr...@community.apache.org- use an email address connected to your apache id. In order to receive the official invitation to become a mentor for Mahout for GSOC you need to get acknowledged as a committer "in good standing" with the project. For that you have to send an email to the Mahout PMC list, cc-ed to ment...@community.apache.org to be acknowledged as a committer in good standing Sample email below: to priv...@mahout.apache.org cc ment...@community.apache.org subject: GSOC mentor request for [your name here] Hi [Apache project PMC], Please acknowledge my request to become a mentor for Google Summer of Code 2017 for [Apache project] (by replying to all with an ACK message). I would like to receive the mentor invite at [email address connected to a Gmail account] >>> Once someone on the private@mahout replies (to private@mahout and mentors@community) with an acknowledgement (you can ack yourself as member of PMC), the Apache system admin for GSOC, which is on the mentors@community.a.o list will send you a mentor invite Below is a message sent some time ago with useful info for GSOC: -- Forwarded message -- From: Ulrich Stärk Date: Fri, Feb 3, 2017 at 2:50 PM Subject: Google Summer of Code 2017 is coming To: ment...@community.apache.org Hello PMCs (incubator Mentors, please forward this email to your podlings), Google Summer of Code [1] is a program sponsored by Google allowing students to spend their summer working on open source software. Students will receive stipends for developing open source software full-time for three months. Projects will provide mentoring and project ideas, and in return have the chance to get new code developed and - most importantly - to identify and bring in new committers. The ASF will apply as a participating organization meaning individual projects don't have to apply separately. If you want to participate with your project we ask you to do the following things as soon as possible but by no later than 2017-02-09: 1. understand what it means to be a mentor [2]. 2. record your project ideas. Just create issues in JIRA, label them with gsoc2017, and they will show up at [3]. Please be as specific as possible when describing your idea. Include the programming language, the tools and skills required, but try not to scare potential students away. They are supposed to learn what's required before the program starts. Use labels, e.g. for the programming language (java, c, c++, erlang, python, brainfuck, ...) or technology area (cloud, xml, web, foo, bar, ...) and record them at [5]. Please use the COMDEV JIRA project for recording your ideas if your project doesn't use JIRA (e.g. httpd, ooo). Contact dev@community.apache.org if you need assistance. [4] contains some additional information (will be updated for 2017 shortly). 3. subscribe to ment...@community.apache.org; restricted to potential mentors, meant to be used as a private list - general discussions on the public dev@community.apache.org list as much as possible please). Use a recognized address when subscribing (@apache.org or one of your alias addresses on record). Note that the ASF isn't accepted as a participating organization yet, nevertheless you *have to* start recording your ideas now or we will not get accepted. Over the years we were able to complete hundreds of projects successfully. Some of our prior students are active contributors now! Let's make this year a success again! Cheers, Uli P.S.: Except for the private parts (label spreadsheet mostly), this email is free to be shared publicly if you want to.

Hey all, I'm a PMC member of the Apache Mahout Community, I've spoken Aditya both on dev and offline. I think this will be a good fit. What do I need to do on my end to make this official?

GSoC 2017
Respected Sir/Madam, I am a student presently pursuing my bachelors degree in Information Technology from India and want to contribute in projects , in your organisation for GSoC 2017. I was interested to work on your project: Supporting Image-to-Text (Image Captioning) in Tika for Image MIME Types and personally feel that i meet the requirements and have a good experience of programming in java and c. This being my first time in GSoC could you please guide me about the procedure to join Apache Software Foundation in order to contribute in your projects. I think it will be a great opportunity to work with Apache Software Foundation. Thanking You, Dhruv Sharma

GSoC 2017
Hi there! I am Laszlo Karsai from Hungary. I have experience in working with Java, Android, bash, python, Javascript, C/C++. Besides these, I have also gained experiences in some Apache products (ServiceMix, Karaf, Camel) in every day use because in my workplace, I have developed a message distribution system for more than one year (part-time job). In this system, we use ActiveMQ to handle the message flow. I already started to get familiar with the Kafka as well. I would happily participate in GSoC 2017 in one of Apache reported projects. One of them is really interesting for me which is: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT-946. I think I would be able to handle it as I have relevant experience. However, I would like to show me skills for you. I have already subscribed to the developer mailing list. I hope it is not disturbing that I wrote to this email address but I thought my question is not development related. How can I show you my skills? What do you expect from potential participant at this point of GSoC process? Thank you for your answer in advance! Best Regards, Laszlo Karsai

GSoC 2017?
Time flies and I still haven't gotten around to conducting the survey on GSoC. The application period for 2017 has already started and we need to apply before Feb 9. I will conduct a quick gathering of opinions on mentors@ but would like to also have opinions from the wider community. Should we apply this year or do people have reservations (e.g. not worthwhile our volunteer energy for the benefits gained)?
