Fwd: GSoC Announcement: Announcing Google Summer of Code 2021
FYI -- Forwarded message - From: 'sttaylor' via Google Summer of Code Announce < google-summer-of-code-annou...@googlegroups.com> Date: Tue, Oct 27, 2020 at 12:51 PM Subject: GSoC Announcement: Announcing Google Summer of Code 2021 To: Google Summer of Code Announce < google-summer-of-code-annou...@googlegroups.com> We are pleased to announce Google Summer of Code 2021 <http://g.co/gsoc>, the 17th consecutive year of the program! The program announcement <https://opensource.googleblog.com/2020/10/google-summer-of-code-2021-is-bringing.html> , timeline <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline>, marketing materials <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/resources/marketing> (slide deck, flyers), FAQs <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/faq>, student guide <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/resources/guide> and short videos <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/videos> about the program and tips for mentors and students are all available. For 2021 we are excited to offer smaller sized projects and thus a lower time commitment for those interested in participating in the program. In 2021 all student projects will be 175 hour projects (instead of the previous 350 hr projects) and the coding period will be 10 weeks. There are many folks who have been unable to commit to a 350 hr project but are interested in learning more about open source and being a part of these amazing open source communities so we hope this will allow those folks to apply for the program. We are also changing the eligibility for students - in 2021 students need to be enrolled in (or accepted into) a post-secondary academic program (including university, community college, PhD program, licensed coding camp, etc.) as of May 17, 2021 or if they graduated from a post-secondary academic program between December 1, 2020 and May 17, 2021 they are eligible to apply. Student applications open March 29, 2021. We will announce the open source organizations that will be mentoring orgs for 2021 on March 8, 2021, at that point interested students should be reaching out to orgs that interest them and talking through the project ideas. Thinking about being a mentor for GSoC 2021? Reach out to the organization you'd like to work with over the next couple of months and let them know, I'm sure they'd be thrilled to have you as a mentor! We are looking forward to another exciting year of GSoC!

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.

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 might 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!

Application for Google Summer of Code 2019
Hello Mentors, My name is Karan Vishwakarma and I am pursuing Bachelors in Information Technology at Institute of Engineering and Technology, DAVV Indore. As a part of the university curriculum, I have learned fundamental Information Technology courses like Data Structure, Algorithms, Operating systems and Computer Networks. These courses have enhanced my programming skills and motivated me to design and develop an Android application named ‘KeyNote’ (available on Google Play Store) that helps the users to store information and their personal data in the form of notes. The technologies which I used to build the notes application are Java, XML, Android Studios and storage databases like SQLite and SharedPreferences for fast data loading. Additionally, I integrated Google AdMob to provide a platform to serve Ads and increase user engagement. With the knowledge of web development technologies, I designed my portfolio website using tools like HTML, CSS, HTML5, CSS3, _javascript_, XAMPP, Google Web Toolkit and PHP and hosted the website on web host by managing files through FileZilla. To support code modularity and easy maintenance, I designed the website with Leaner Style Sheets (LESS) to extend the capabilities of CSS. To optimize the applications with advanced learning algorithms, I enrolled in courses like ‘Divide and Conquer, Sorting and Searching, and Randomized algorithm’ and ‘Machine Learning’ offered by Stanford University where I achieved a grade of 93.2% among all students. I look forward to a challenging career which may even be arduous and demanding at times but I am confident that with my sincerity and dedication, I will be able to make a meaningful contribution to the open source projects for Google Summer of Code 2019 with the best of my knowledge and skills. Please find my resume attached and I look forward to talking to you soon. KARANVISHWAKARMA_RESUME.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document Thanks!Best Regards,Karan Vishwakarma

Hello, my name is Stefan Loata. I was born and grown in Italy (Rome) and now I am living in the Netherlands (Studying in a Liberal Arts and Sciences College of the Utrecht University). I am in my Second Semester and I am planning to Major in Computer Science, Mathematics and Physics, trying possibly to get a Minor in Art History. I am working with Java, MySQL (and NoSQL Cassandra), Mathematica (Wolfram) and Latex. On my own, I got a basic understanding of Python, Ruby and CSS/HTML. This would be the first time I work on a so large scale project but I am really willing to learn and I will have a lot of time to dedicate to it during the summer. I have just started looking at it, cause I had to prepare various Midterms. I was wondering if you could suggest me on which of the project Ideas I could start looking and try to apply, considering my preparation. Kind regards, Stefan Loata

Re: Google Summer of Code 2017 Mentor Registration
Hello Claudio, You cannot register as mentor, you need to receive invitation from Org admins. To get invitation you need to send an email asking your PMC to acknowledge your mentor role Please search the recent email from Uli regarding that On Fri, Mar 10, 2017 at 4:05 AM, Claudio Martella <claudio.marte...@gmail.com> wrote: > Actually, I could not sign up in [3], it says: > > Registration is currently not open. > > Student applications will be accepted starting on March 20, 2017 at 16:00 > (GMT). > > > Is there another login for mentors? > > Thanks, > Claudio > > On Mon, Mar 6, 2017 at 7:39 PM Ulrich Stärk <u...@apache.org> wrote: > >> Dear PMCs, >> >> I'm happy to announce that the ASF has made it onto the list of accepted >> organizations for >> Google Summer of Code 2017!

Google Summer of Code 2017 Mentor Registration
Dear PMCs, I'm happy to announce that the ASF has made it onto the list of accepted organizations for Google Summer of Code 2017! [1,2] It is now time for mentors to sign up, so please pass this email on to your community and podlings. If you aren’t already subscribed to ment...@community.apache.org you should do so now else you might miss important information. Mentor signup requires two steps: mentor signup in Google's system [3] and PMC acknowledgement. If you want to mentor a project in this year's SoC you will have to 1. Be an Apache committer. 2. Request an acknowledgement from the PMC for which you want to mentor projects. Use the below template and *do not forget to copy ment...@community.apache.org*. We will use the email adress you indicate to send the invite to be a mentor for Apache. PMCs, read carefully please. We request that each mentor is acknowledged by a PMC member. This is to ensure the mentor is in good standing with the community. When you receive a request for acknowledgement, please ACK it and cc ment...@community.apache.org Lastly, it is not yet too late to record your ideas in Jira (see my previous emails for details). Students will now begin to explore ideas so if you haven’t already done so, record your ideas immediately!

Google Summer of Code in Apache Airflow
Hi all, I am 3rd year bachelor student from Gdańsk, Poland and I would like to participate in Google Summer of Code. That would be the first time ever for me to take a part in this program :) I am currently working at Intel Technology Poland as Graphics Software Engineer Intern. I have worked here for about 1.5 year. My primary languages that I’m using (as a day to day coder) are Python and JavaScript. I’ve been using several frameworks and technologies such as Flask, SQLAlchemy, RabbitMQ, Redis, AngularJS and many more. Recently, I have been using Apache Airflow as a primary framework and I find it very useful and promising for the future :) Every day is another adventure, so I’m currently focusing on many other technologies that can broaden my horizons on IT. That’s why I’m taking a part in one of the biggest competitions on Kaggle’s platform - Data Science Bowl 2017. I was asked by my professor to join the team of other passionate people and together with VoiceLab (local company specialised in machine learning) try to improve lung cancer detection. That’s my first touch with machine learning and especially neural networks in Keras/TensorFlow. It changed my perspectives for the directions in which computer science heads towards :) Each new technology/project/task gives me new knowledge and skills that (I hope) will make me a better developer in the future! I have seen that you have proposed a few projects ideas for this year. But I have got a question to you. Is there a way to join developers of Apache Airflow and help them with this great framework? I’ve checked its Jira board and there are many ideas for features/improvements that can be a great GSoC topic :) I hope to hear from you soon!

This year, students will be paired with mentors from 137 Open Source, free software, and technology-related groups that include CERN, GNU Project, KDE, MIT Media Lab, WikiMedia Foundation, and many more. The ASF was amongst the initial 39 organizations selected to participate in the very first GSoC in 2005, and has participated every year since. At the ASF, the GSoC program is overseen by the Apache Community Development project, which comprises volunteers who help guide newcomers to The Apache Software Foundation, provide insight and advice on The Apache Way of meritocratic development, including how to contribute to Apache projects and to the Open Source community at-large. Over the summer, Apache Committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will be working on many of our projects, said Ulrich Stärk, Vice President of Community Development at the ASF. The program helps us to not only get some great code written, but also to introduce students into Open Source development and hopefully recruit some new long-term Committers. Students are encouraged to discuss ideas with mentoring organizations and finalize proposals for projects of interest by the 27 March deadline. ASF mentors have proposed 129 ideas for Apache projects in Big Data, Cloud, Enterprise Integration, Enterprise Search

Re: ASF accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015
Hi Ross --a quick follow-up on this.
As you may have been following our emails, we're aiming to issue the ASF press
release tomorrow. How would you like to go about integrating the TEALs angle?
Should this be something we work around for ApacheCon? Or did you have
something else in mind?
I'm happy to take the conversation off-list whilst we sort out the details.
Thanks again,Sally

Sally we could weave this into the diversity angle, as a reminder I intend to
use the state of the feather to acknowledge that we have mostly failed to move
the needle on diversity in our community, that very little works (GSoC is a
good example of something that does work), accept we don’t have significant
cash resources to make a big difference and therefore we have invited TEALs to
present, organize a BOF and have a table in the expo area. TEALs help get
people like our vast army of volunteers into high schools to help improve CS
education. My hope is that by supporting activities like this we can have a
small impact on the quality and breadth of CS education for those coming to us
as contributors in later years. What do you think? If this works for you I
could link you to the TEALs people to help with content for a blog. Oh, and
I will be at ApacheCon. Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc. A subsidiary of

Students may choose from the Apache Ideas Page at http://s.apache.org/gsoc2015ideas or suggest their own project for approval. Coding will begin 25 May and end 21 August. GSoC gives students the chance to work on industry-leading Open Source projects, collaborate with diverse communities, and gain real world experience related to their academic pursuits, added Stärk. We are proud to have mentored so many talented students over the years, and furthered our mission of providing software products for the public good. It's a rewarding experience both for the students and the Apache community at-large. Since the program's inception, GSoC has brought together over 8,500 successful student participants from over countries and over 8,000 mentors from 109 countries worldwide to produce over 55 million lines of code. Being accepted once again as a Google Summer of Code mentoring organization reinforces The Apache Software Foundation's leadership in community-driven development, said ASF Vice Chairman Greg Stein, who, in 2005 co-created the GSoC program while working at Google. Hundreds of students have been mentored in 'The Apache Way' --many have continued on to become long-term code committers on a variety of Apache projects, with some active program participants elected as ASF Members. Information on the ASF's participation in Google Summer of Code is available at http://community.apache.org/gsoc.html About The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) Established in 1999, the all-volunteer Foundation oversees more than 350 leading Open Source projects, including Apache HTTP Server --the world's most popular Web server software.

The Google Summer of Code program offers student developers stipends to write code for various Open Source projects over a three month period. This year, students will be paired with mentors from 137 Open Source, free software, and technology-related groups that include CERN, GNU Project, KDE, MIT Media Lab, WikiMedia Foundation, and many more. The ASF was amongst the initial 39 organizations selected to participate in the very first GSoC in 2005, and has participated every year since. At the ASF, the GSoC program is overseen by the Apache Community Development project, which comprises volunteers who help guide newcomers to The Apache Software Foundation, provide insight and advice on The Apache Way of meritocratic development, including how to contribute to Apache projects and to the Open Source community at-large. Over the summer, Apache Committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will be working on many of our projects, said Ulrich Stärk, Vice President of Community Development at the ASF. The program helps us to not only get some great code written, but also to introduce students into Open Source development and hopefully recruit some new long-term Committers. Students are encouraged to discuss ideas with mentoring organizations and finalize proposals for projects of interest by the 27 March deadline. ASF mentors have proposed 129 ideas for Apache projects in Big Data, Cloud, Enterprise Integration, Enterprise Search, Project Management, Semantic Web Linked Data, along with other categories. Students may choose from the Apache Ideas Page at http://s.apache.org/gsoc2015ideas or suggest their own project for approval. Coding will begin 25 May and end 21 August. GSoC gives students the chance to work on industry-leading Open Source projects, collaborate with diverse communities, and gain real world experience related to their academic pursuits, added Stärk. We are proud to have mentored so many talented students over the years, and furthered our mission of providing software products for the public good. It's a rewarding experience both for the students and the Apache community at-large. Since the program's inception, GSoC has brought together over 8,500 successful student participants from over countries and over 8,000 mentors from 109 countries worldwide to produce over 55 million lines of code. Being accepted once again as a Google Summer of Code mentoring organization reinforces The Apache Software Foundation's leadership in community-driven development, said ASF

Yesterday, we have been accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015 [1],[2]. This means that over the summer, our committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will be working on our projects. The program helps us not only to get some code written but also to introduce students into open source development and hopefully recruit some new long-term committers. More information on the program is available at [3]. Students are now encouraged to discuss ideas with the respective projects and begin drafting proposals. An extensive list of already existing project ideas is available at [4]. The actual application phase is from March 16 until March 27, coding will take place from May 25 to August 21.

Re: ASF accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015
Just a quick question on this. Seeing that there will be some members of ComDev as well as PMCs at ApacheCon, is it likely that any in-person mentoring/hackathon/MeetUps/* will take place there? I know it's not common practice for GSoC, but I was curious if we'd be open to anything like that. Humans huddling and all...

Yesterday, we have been accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015 [1],[2]. This means that over the summer, our committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will be working on our projects. The program helps us not only to get some code written but also to introduce students into open source development and hopefully recruit some new long-term committers. More information on the program is available at [3]. Students are now encouraged to discuss ideas with the respective projects and begin drafting proposals. An extensive list of already existing project ideas is available at [4]. The actual application phase is from March 16 until March 27, coding will take place from May 25 to August 21. See [5] for the detailed timeline. Can you please run any press release past us (dev@community.apache.org) before publishing?

RE: ASF accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2015
Sally we could weave this into the diversity angle, as a reminder I intend to use the state of the feather to acknowledge that we have mostly failed to move the needle on diversity in our community, that very little works (GSoC is a good example of something that does work), accept we don’t have significant cash resources to make a big difference and therefore we have invited TEALs to present, organize a BOF and have a table in the expo area. TEALs help get people like our vast army of volunteers into high schools to help improve CS education. My hope is that by supporting activities like this we can have a small impact on the quality and breadth of CS education for those coming to us as contributors in later years. What do you think?

If you aren’t already subscribed to ment...@community.apache.org you should do so now else you might miss important information. Mentor signup requires two steps: mentor signup in Melange and PMC acknowledgement. If you want to mentor a project in this year's SoC you will have to 1. Be an Apache committer. 2. Register with Melange and set up a profile [3]. 3. Add your username (formerly known as link_id) to [4]. This is NOT your email address but your Melange username. You can find it at the top of any page once you are logged in. 4. Request an acknowledgement from the PMC for which you want to mentor projects. Use the below template and do not forget to copy ment...@community.apache.org. 5. Once a PMC member acknowledges the request to mentor, and only then, go to [5] and send a connection request. PMCs, read carefully please. We request that each mentor is acknowledged by a PMC member. This is to ensure the mentor is in good standing with the community. When you receive a request for acknowledgement, please ACK it and cc ment...@community.apache.org Lastly, it is not yet too late to record your ideas in Jira (see my previous emails for details).

Hi Manoj, this question is best asked on the Spark mailing lists (copied). From a formal point of view all that counts is your proposal in Melange once applications start but your mentor or the project you wish to contribute to may have additional requirements.

We are working on the problem now. Below is all the information you'll need to participate: --- *Google Summer of Code Doc Camp - a partnership of GSoC, Aspiration and FLOSS Manuals * This is a call for proposals for the 2013 GSoC Doc Camp. Individuals and projects are invited to submit proposals for the GSoC Doc Camp to be held at Google's Mountain View headquarters in California from October 14 - October 18. * What is it?* The GSoC Doc Camp is a place for free software communities to meet, work on creating a book for their project, attract new people to their efforts, and share their documentation experiences. The camp aims to improve free documentation materials and skills in free software projects and individuals and help form the identity of the emergent free documentation sector.The Doc Camp will consist of 2 major components - an unconference and 2-4 short (3 day) Book Sprints to produce books for the selected projects. The unconference will explore topics proposed by the participants. Any topic on free documentation of free software can be proposed for discussion during the event. Each Book Sprint will bring together 4-5 individuals to produce a book on a specific free software project. All participants of the Doc Camp must attend a sprint. The books will be launched online in print and ebook formats on the final day of the event. *Who should come?* Individuals and free software projects can apply. All individuals will be required to work on one of the selected projects to assist their documentation efforts. *How to I get involved?* Individuals with a passion for free documentation about free software may apply to attend by filling out the application form [1] and submitting before August 7. Those wishing to attend do not need to be from a GSoC project. Accommodation and food will be covered by the GSoC Doc Camp. Partial or complete travel costs can also be applied for as part of the application process. Free software projects of any sort can also apply - they do not need to be GSoC 2013 projects although these may be given preference. Projects will be chosen from proposals submitted to the GSoC Doc Camp before August 7 through the application form [2]. Project applications can nominate up to 5 individuals to attend and participate in the proposed sprint. A Project proposal does not have to nominate individuals to participate - you can also use this as an opportunity to promote your project to Doc Camp participants and extend your documentation community. If the proposal is accepted the accommodation and food costs will be covered by the Doc Camp for any listed individuals and part or complete travel costs for each can be applied for (if applicable). The 2013 GSoC Doc Camp is co-organized by GSoC, Aspiration and FLOSS Manuals. Unconference facilitation conducted by Allen Gunn, and Book Sprint facilitated by Adam Hyde. *APPLY HERE:* https://docs.google.com/a/google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dDl6QWlMbDFjcVF2Z1EyQ1d1b1NyN1E6MQ#gid=0 Mary Radomile | Open Source Programs Office | ma...@google.com mailto:ma...@google.com | 650-253-6616 On Wed, Jul 24, 2013 at 11:52 AM, Mary Radomile ma...@google.com mailto:ma...@google.com wrote: GSoC Mentors, past and present- This is a call for proposals for the 2013 GSoC Doc Camp to be held at Google's Mountain View headquarters in California from Oct 14 - 18, 2013.

Thanks for the reminder. = = = The Apache Software Foundation Community Development Project Welcomes Student Proposals for Google Summer of Code 2013 Hundreds of students mentored in “The Apache Way” of Open Source community leadership Forest Hill, MD –9 April 2013– The Apache Software Foundation (ASF)'s Community Development (ComDev) project today announced its acceptance into the Google Summer of Code (GsoC) as a mentoring organization for the eighth consecutive year. The ComDev team helps newcomers learn about the ASF's projects, governance, and activities, and guides them in becoming part of the meritocratic, all-volunteer Apache community. Established in 2005, the Google Summer of Code offers student developers from around the word stipends to write code for various Open Source software projects over a three month period. The ASF has actively participated in GSoC since the program's inception, mentoring 30-45 students each year, and providing exposure to real-world software and community development “The Apache Way”. Countless GSoC students mentored by the Apache community continue to be long-term code committers on a variety of Apache projects. Some active program participants have even been elected as members of the ASF. This year, dozens of Apache projects have committed to mentoring GSoC students. They include Accumulo, Airavata, Axiom, Bloodhound, CloudStack, CouchDB, Crunch, Giraph, Gora, Hama, Hive, Isis, Jena, Lenya, Lucene, Mahout, ManifoldCF, Mesos, Nutch, ODE, OpenMeetings, OpenOffice, Pig, Rat, SIS, Sling, Solr, Stanbol, Tika, VXQuery, Wookie, XalanJ, and XercesJ. Make clear that this list isn't exclusive. Maybe They include but are not limited to...? Not that it should matter for this, but some of these projects are Incubator podlings. The ComDev team invite GSoC students to propose application ideas directly with all Apache project(s) of interest no later than Sunday, 21 April 2013. The ASF's more than 100 Top-Level Projects and nearly three dozen initiatives in the Apache Incubator are listed at http://www.apache.org/ and http://incubator.apache.org/ respectively. The ComDev team recommends GSoC students to discuss application ideas directly with all Apache project(s) of interest before the official start of the application phase on Monday, 22 April 2013.

Through the ASF's meritocratic process known as The Apache Way, more than 400 individual Members and 3,500 Committers successfully collaborate to develop freely available enterprise-grade software, benefiting millions of users worldwide: thousands of software solutions are distributed under the Apache License; and the community actively participates in ASF mailing lists, mentoring initiatives, and ApacheCon

Uli --help me understand the urgency. A press release doesn't necessarily reach (y)our intended audience --participants. I will write an announcement, put it out over the newswire, post it on the ASF Foundation Blog, Tweet about it, send it to announce@ and our press/analyst list, and post it on the apache.org homepage. Of course, I will get the draft over to you (ComDev) for review prior to issuing. I'd love a quote from the ComDev chair. Will Luciano be able to do this?

Yesterday, we have been accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2013 [1],[2]. This means that over the summer, our committers will mentor students that are sponsored by Google and will be working on our projects. The program helps us not only to get some code written but also to introduce students into open source development and hopefully recruit some new long-term committers. More information on the program is available at [3]. Students are now encouraged to discuss ideas with the respective projects and begin drafting proposals. An extensive list of already existing project ideas is available at [4]. The actual application phase is from April 24 until May 3, coding will take place from June 17 to September 23. See [5] for the detailed timeline. Can you please run any press release past us (dev@community.apache.org mailto:dev@community.apache.org) before publishing?

Re: [GSoC Mentors Announce] Google Summer of Code 2013
[1] Covers most of it. One time-consuming part is right now: collecting ideas, writing the application, answering mentor questions, etc. The most laborious task is after the student proposal phase: we'll have to guide mentors through the ranking, help were necessary, resolve conflicts, etc. After that it's chasing mentors to meet their deadlines for evaluations and help when problems arise. I can handle most of it myself but it would be nice to know that someone can help out in case I'm too tied up with other things.

Yay! If you would like to help spread the word about GSoC, we have presentations [2], logos [3], and flyers [4] for you to use. Please host meetups, tell your friends and colleagues about the program, go to conferences, talk to people about the program, and just generally do all the awesome word-of-mouth stuff you do every year to promote the program. The GSoC calendar, FAQ, and events timeline have all been updated with this year's important dates, so please refer to those for the milestones for this year's program. NB: the normal timeline for the program has been modified for this year. You'll probably want to examine the dates closely to make sure you know when important things are happening. Please consider translating the presentations and/or flyers into your native language and submitting them directly to me to post on the wiki. Localization for our material is integral to reaching the widest possible audience around the world. If you decide to translate a flyer, please fill out our form to request a thank you gift for your effort. [5] If you decide to host a meetup, please email me to let me know the date, time, and location so I can put it on the GSoC calendar. Also, remember to take pictures at your meetup and write up a blog post for our blog using our provided template for formatting [6]. If you need promotional items for your attendees, please fill out our form [7] to request some; we're happy to send some along. We can provide up to about 25 pens, notebooks, or stickers and/or a few t-shirts. Please keep in mind, though, that shipping restrictions and timeline vary country-to-country; request items early to make sure they get there on time! If you have questions about hosting meetups, please see the section in our FAQ [8]. Please also consider applying to participate as an organization again this year or maybe joining as a mentor for your favorite organization if they are selected this year. We rely on you for your help

I've got some cycles and would volunteer as the org admin again. Any others? I'm joining the party a bit late, but would like to throw my hat in the ring to help as org admin. I've been an org admin/asst admin mentor for the past few years with Sakai. Just let me know how I should help.
