Re: Is there interest in participating in Google Code-in this year?

Hi,

I apologise for the the delay. I'm available for mentoring too. I can help
the students setting things up, finding their way around KDE, programming
and similar concepts. I'd hate to see GCI not happening this time around
for KDE and students missings an awesome opportunity.

Regards
Aditya

Hi,

Kopete has tasks that can be done by GCI candidates.

Yes, people are busy. Other new members of KDE should take the initiatives
for their projects and participate to mentor GCI students. It's a great way
to get potential enthusiastic contributors for your projects.

It takes effort to be mentor but we always have experienced members to help
us when lost on something :)

If you can mentor and have time, add your proposal here which you are
willing to mentor. This way assessing the interest will be easier.

Hi,

On GCompris side, we have some tasks and a few mentors.
Not that much, but if there are more from other KDE projects we can
participate.

It _is_ open to design tasks! This is actually the category where we
usually have most trouble finding tasks, so yes, you'd be definitely
most welcome to participate if we appplied.

Well so I can't do much in that area I feel - unless its open to design tasks. 
If that is the case ("design tasks" is ok), count me in.

Hi Valorie,
I feel sorry to hear that.
I could give it a try on the mentorship. I just don't know if I'm good
enough to fill the purpose.
Cheers

We don't need one mentor though, we need up to 50, and probably 400
tasks by January. We also need admins, and tasks NOW.

Thanks for offering, and of course you are good enough! -v

Is there interest in participating in Google Code-in this year?

2017-10-12 Thread Valorie Zimmerman
Hello folks, when I've written about GCi before this, I got few to no
replies. My feeling is that previous enthusiastic mentors are without
the energy and time to participate this year.

Org applications are open, but unless I hear a swell of enthusiasm
here, I'm inclined to not apply.

Thoughts?
