Re: [Openstack] Does OpenStack join this year's GSoC

[Victoria Martínez de la Cruz]

+1

I would also like to participate as a student. I'm more familiar with
OpenStack Dashboard, but I'm open to learn and contribute to any other
project. If someone is interested in mentoring, please let me know.

Cheers,

 Are you interested in being a mentor or participating as a student?

  I sent out a call to the OpenStack community to ask for someone to
 coordinate and recruit mentors:

 http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-January/025744.html

 But haven't heard back from anyone interested yet.

 Thanks for asking -- hopefully it'll encourage someone to step forward!

Hi all,

Thanks for proposing as mentors. I'm really interested in participating as
a student and I'm wishing we can enter this time.

[Openstack] Call for mentors Outreachy Dec-March 2016

[Victoria Martínez de la Cruz]

Hi everyone,

OpenStack will join next round of the Outreachy internships and we need you
help: we are looking for full-time contributors willing to share some of
their time, knowledge and experience to make our open-source organization
more diverse and have the opportunity to meet new talents.

*What is Outreachy*

Outreachy helps people from groups underrepresented in free and open source
software get involved. Read more in https://www.gnome.org/outreachy/.

OpenStack has been participating in this internships since Jan-Apr 2013,
and we have had really good results: we got more full-time contributors, we
got lots of good quality contributions, interns had the opportunity to give
a great step in their professional careers and also it has been an
enriching experience for everyone involved with the internship. More
information about OpenStack participation in Outreachy can be find in
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Outreachy.

*Applications open next September 22nd, and the deadline for applications
is October 27th. *https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/2015/DecemberMarch

*TLDR*

Contributors interested on mentoring in Outreachy, please feel free to ask
any question and ask for further directions here or in #openstack-opw in
Freenode.

Try to find and propose a task for the next couple of months for your
mentee. The task should be able to be finished on three months. Add this
idea in this wiki https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Internship_ideas.

Please join #openstack-opw as well, to welcome applicants and help them
with their setups.

Another way to get in touch is through the internships mailing list,
http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-internships.

*Mentors*

*Time requirements*

Being a mentor shouldn't take a lot of time from your working week. Mentors
from previous rounds organized differently: you can schedule a weekly
meeting to catch up with your mentee latest work, questions and next steps;
some other prefer having a daily short meeting; you choose how to organize
your agenda.

Consider that different mentees will need different guidance, but we aim to
work with proactive and independent people. This qualities are defined
during the application process, so make sure to participate actively in
this so you make sure you get a mentee you can work with.

*Tasks*

Mentors are supposed to act as a channel for mentees with the rest of the
community. You should be able to help them understand the community
workflow (tools, milestones), introduce them to the team you are working
with (so they also have other people to learn from), help them to gain
confidence and participate of the weekly meetings.

You are not supposed to teach them the basics (say, we cannot have people
that cannot program in Python), but you should be able to point them in the
right direction with the tools we use in the community and they should be
able to learn at their own pace.

*Mentees*

*Time requirements*

It is a full-time internship, so mentees are expected to work 40 hours per
week in the assigned project.

*Tasks*

Mentees are supposed to devote their time on learning about the community,
getting familiar with the tools used to contribute to OpenStack,
understanding the basics of the code base of the project they are working
on and finishing the assigned task before the internship ends. They are
also encouraged to help with bug triaging, bug fixing and code reviewing.
All this should be shared in a personal blog mentees have to set up when
they start with their internships.

Thanks all,

Victoria

Anyone?

Please, this is a community effort.

Internships won't happen if we don't have enough mentors.

[Openstack] Outreachy May-Aug 2016: Call for funding and mentors

[Victoria Martínez de la Cruz]

Hi everyone,

Quick update on the Outreachy  program,
including a request for funding and volunteer mentors. For those of you who
are not aware, Outreachy helps people from groups underrepresented in free
and open source software get involved by matching interns with established
mentors in the upstream community.

OpenStack haven't confirmed the participation to this Outreachy round yet,
but despite of that we are receiving applicants interested in contribute to
different projects. We have already 10 volunteer mentors for OpenStack this
next cycle, which will take place May 23 - August 23, 2016. OpenStack could
use a few more volunteer mentors for any project. You can learn more about
what is expected from mentors and how to apply here:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Outreachy/Mentors

We have some potential sponsors, but we could use some additional sponsors
to help support the large increase in OpenStack applicants. The sponsorship
cost is 6,500 USD per intern, which provide them a stipend for the
three-month program. You can learn more about sponsorship here:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/Admin/InfoForOrgs#Action

I personally believe Outreachy is one of the most important and effective
diversity efforts we’ve invested in to date. We’ve had some amazing
graduates become long-term contributors to our community.

Please help spread the word. If you are interested in becoming a mentor or
sponsoring an intern, please contact me (victoria AT redhat.com) or
Mahati (mahati.chamarthy
AT gmail.com).

Thanks,

Victoria

[Openstack] Outreachy Dec-Mar 2018: Call for funding and mentors

[Victoria Martínez de la Cruz]

Hi everyone,

Quick update on the Outreachy [0] program, including a request for funding
and volunteer mentors. For those of you who are not aware, Outreachy helps
people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software get
involved by matching interns with established mentors in the upstream
community.

OpenStack have confirmed the participation to this Outreachy round. We are
already receiving applicants interested in contributing to different
projects. but we don't have confirmed mentors yet. So, if you want to
continue with your participation (if you already joined in previous rounds)
or you would like to join this round for the first time, please do! The
upcoming internship will take place *December 5, 2017 to March 5, 2018*.
Application process will open on *September 7th*, and we would need to have
internship ideas and mentors guidance from that date. You can learn more
about what is expected from mentors and how to apply here:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Outreachy/Mentors.

We have one sponsor confirmed, but we could use some additional sponsors to
help support the large increase in OpenStack applicants. The sponsorship
cost is 6,500 USD per intern, which provide them a stipend for the
three-month program. You can learn more about sponsorship here:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/Admin/InfoForOrgs#Action

I personally believe Outreachy is one of the most important and effective
diversity efforts we’ve invested in to date. We’ve had some amazing
graduates become long-term contributors to our community.

Please help spread the word. If you are interested in becoming a mentor or
sponsoring an intern, please contact me (victoria AT redhat.com) or Mahati
(mahati.chamarthy AT gmail.com).

Thanks,

Victoria

[Openstack] Stepping down as coordinator for the Outreachy internships

[Victoria Martínez de la Cruz]

Hi all,

I'm reaching you out to let you know that I'll be stepping down as
coordinator for OpenStack next round. I had been contributing to this
effort for several rounds now and I believe is a good moment for somebody
else to take the lead. You all know how important is Outreachy to me and
I'm grateful for all the amazing things I've done as part of the Outreachy
program and all the great people I've met in the way. I plan to keep
involved with the internships but leave the coordination tasks to somebody
else.

If you are interested in becoming an Outreachy coordinator, let me know and
I can share my experience and provide some guidance.

Thanks,

Victoria

[Victoria Martínez de la Cruz]

Thanks everyone for your words!

I really love the OpenStack community and I'm glad I could contribute back
with this.

Samuel has been a great mentor for Outreachy in several rounds and I
believe he will excel as coordinator along with Mahati. Thanks for
volunteer for this Samuel!

All the best,

Victoria
