 Thank you for your interest in helping revisit GSoC ideas and come up with 
 new ones! October 22 is an application deadline for prospective interns. QEMU 
 would need to have some project ideas listed by September 8, though you can 
 add more ideas through September. The timeline for the program is at 
 https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2014/DecemberMarch You don't 
 need very many ideas, as you are likely to only have at most 2-3 participants.

 We don't yet have any funding confirmed for QEMU, but Stefan and I will be 
 working on this. If your organization might be able to sponsor QEMU 
 internships in OPW, please contact me and Stefan off-list. You can learn more 
 at https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/Admin/InfoForOrgs

Thanks for posting the information Marina.

There is now a wiki page for project ideas and OPW information:
http://qemu-project.org/Outreach_Program_for_Women_2014_DecemberMarch

Mentors: Please post your project ideas on the wiki page.

Thanks,
Stefan

Will do as soon as I find some free time and energy ;)

No.  qemu-project.org is the preferred domain.  wiki.qemu.org works

Oh, sorry then, but I got non-existent page with qemu-project, so I
thought it's different.  I probably loaded wiki.qemu right after you
saved it and that's why it looked like they are two different
domains.

Dear mentors and core contributors,
Outreach Program for Women is starting the next round in October 2014.
OPW funds women to work on open source software for 12 weeks with the
help of mentors:
https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/

We just completed a successful round of OPW and Google Summer of Code.
Other organizations have also been participating successfully in OPW
like the Linux kernel with Greg KH and other mentors.

Would you like to mentor in OPW October 2014?



I could use some of my time to help others participate in the
community.


Regular code contributors to QEMU, KVM, and libvirt are eligible to
participate as mentors.

We also need project ideas that are achievable in 12 weeks by someone
skilled in programming but not necessarily familiar with open source
or our codebase.  Ideas welcome!



It's just a matter of ideas.  Maybe we could revisit some of those we
had for GSoC.  If I'm reading the deadline for project ideas is
October 22nd, so I think we'll definitely come up with something.

In first pitch this might be a rewriting of storage driver to handle
jobs (our failed GSoC project from this year), and if admin API gets
added, there will be many APIs and ideas how to expand it.

Yes, we can continue to offer project ideas that were not done last round.

Thanks for your interest, Martin!  I'll send more information once we
have information on how many slots are funded.
