[spyder] Google Summer of Code and NumFOCUS
Hi, NumFOCUS has promotes and supports the ongoing research and development of open-source computing tools including Spyder. This year NumFOCUS want to try be a Google Summer of Code "umbrella" mentoring organization, Umbrella organizations are mentoring organizations accepted into the Google Summer of Code program that have other open source organizations working "under" them. Sometime organizations that work very closely or have very similar goals or communities may get put together under an "umbrella." Google stills expects all organizations under the umbrella, whether accepted into the program under their title or not, to adhere to all the rules and regulations of the program. From https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2015/help_page#umbrella_organization To help promote and support Spyder. We encourage Spyder to apply to Google Summer of Code under your own title and will be very happy if you can also do with us. If you are interested, please check https://github.com/swcarpentry/gsoc2015 and https://github.com/swcarpentry/gsoc2015/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md. If you have any question, please email me directly. Thanks in advance, Raniere -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.

Re: [spyder] Google Summer of Code and NumFOCUS
Hi Raniere, Thanks a lot for your offer and for thinking on Spyder about it! We have not participated yet in GSoC but it seems like a pretty good experience :-) I have a couple of ideas that would suit really well for GSoC, but I'd like to know if other developers could be mentors along with me, especially Steven, Gonzalo, Joseph or Sylvain. If they don't have time or the willingness to do it, then I'm afraid I'd have to decline your offer because that would be too big a commitment of time on top of my maintainer role.

I totally understand. Sorry to raise this in the last minute. I will be more careful next year. Raniere -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.

Let's see what they answer :-) Cheers, Carlos -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group.

Re: [spyder] Google Summer of Code and NumFOCUS
Hi Raniere, Thanks for pushing this forward, I think is the right path to follow :). @Carlos: I am all in for any help I can give on getting more people to help on Spyder. I am willing to help on GSoC, but of course I would need to know in advance how much time and when this time should be allocated ;). Just keep in mind that: 1.) I am in The Netherlands for the next 3 years, (Maybe we should do a sprint in France with Joseph :), Aix-en-Provence?) 2.) I am Colombian, so if I need to go somewhere outside of Europe then I will most likely need a Visa.

Mentors are responsible to review students patches and help answering questions or suggest someone that could answer it. > Just keep in mind that: > 1.)

Re: [spyder] Google Summer of Code and NumFOCUS
Hi, @Gonzalo: I'd like to act as a co-mentor, given that I know the codebase much more than anyone else (except Pierre, of course :-). So please propose projects you find interesting and challenging enough for a student to work on, whom you'd guide until completion. I can propose my projects too, but I'd like to know if you have some of your own. You need to be aware that: 1. Students work for 3 months on this (during the summer, hence the name :-). 2. They can be located anywhere in the globe. 3. They are paid for this work, you are not. 4. I've read from other mentors that this is a very challenging work. I'd said you should reserve between 6 to 10 hours per week for this.

Re: [spyder] Google Summer of Code and NumFOCUS
Hi guys, thanks for the clarifications Sorry for my ignorance, I am not sure how it worked :), I was not expecting payment but I was not sure if I had to go somewhere or not. Now: 1.) Ok, That I knew! 2.) Ok, good to know 3.) Ok, expected this :) 4.) 6-10 hours per week, whooaa... thats a lot hmm. Is it possible to split mentoring between people to ease the load somehow? That is even more to what I am dedicating to Spyder. Ok I will think of projects, can you guys provide me with "an example" project so I can ground a bit the ideas?
