 Yeah.. there were a couple of posts in the newsgroups and I guess no
 more mentors will be added (I still had hope), which is a shame. But
hey, maby next
 summer!:) (too bad I won't be a student anymore)

Thanks to everyone that tried!

How about begging? ;-) I'm pretty sure they can make an exception. And
it also depends who's asking and to whom you're asking.

When we submit publications to conferences or journals and we get past
the deadline. Well we usually ask some big shot to beg! And the thing
is, it always works.

If you outline what you want to do and present something decent + add
a little emotion to it and contact the person directly in charge (no
admins, go for the guy with the top position!), it might work. It's
worth trying. If it doesn't work, well no big deal, at least we've
tried. ;-)

 Students, like myself, can contribute to a list of projects (Gnome,

 I want to participate in the program and I think it would be amazing
 if I can contribute something to E17 (I already have ideas storming

 This is why I wanted to ask if the E team would consider participating

 More info can be found here:

I just wanted to put some encouragement to the E team to consider
this. I'm in the same position as Stefan, ie, i would like to
participate, but none of the projects look very interesting to me. A
project involving E17 would be much more interesting to me.

2005-06-01 Thread dan sinclair
I'm also willing to act as a mentor if need be. (Tho I'd assume there are a lot 
of people more qualifed then me, heh).

How does this work? Do the students present their thing to google or do we have 
to go to google and say we would like to mentor people?

dan



 It seems like a good idea to me. If people are interested in doing
 this, could you send a description of some of the ideas you'd like to
 work on? We would need to have a mentor for any participants, and it
 would help to match people up if we know which areas they want to work
 on.
 
 I'm willing to mentor for the areas I'm familiar with. Anyone else
 willing to mentor or have any objections to participating in this?
