By the way, you are welcome to put the QEMU org as a reference on the
application form for libvirt.  It boosts your chance slightly as a new
org to have another org vouch for you.

You're right. Maybe we should not do it after all.

So far none. But I have adjusted both our wikis to note that.

I'm worried that this would look like orgs trying to game the system.

Are there project ideas that involve both QEMU and libvirt changes?  For
those I think it's fair to have them in both org's lists.  Anything that
is purely QEMU or libvirt shouldn't be duplicated.

Hey Stefan,

so as we spoke earlier in person, I think it's time for libvirt to try
and apply as a separate organization.

I went ahead and created similar GSoC ideas page for libvirt:

http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016

My question is, is qemu willing to back libvirt in case we don't get
selected and if so, should we duplicate the idea list into qemu wiki too?

[libvirt] Call for mentors and project ideas for Google Summer of Code 2016

2016-01-25 Thread Stefan Hajnoczi
The QEMU wiki page for Google Summer of Code 2016 is now available here:

http://qemu-project.org/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016

QEMU will apply for Google Summer of Code 2016 (https://g.co/gsoc/).
If QEMU is accepted there will be funding for students to work on
12-week full-time open source projects remotely from May to August
2016.  QEMU provides a mentor for each student who gives advice and
evaluates their progress.

If you have a project idea, especially if you are a regular
contributor to QEMU and are willing to mentor this summer, please go
to this wiki page and fill out the project idea template:

http://qemu-project.org/Google_Summer_of_Code_2016

The project ideas list is part of the application so that QEMU can
participate in GSoC.  It's useful to have your project ideas on the
wiki by February 8th 2016.

If you have any questions about project ideas or QEMU applying to
GSoC, please reply to this thread.

Thanks,
Stefan
