Re: [Wikitech-l] Google Summer of Code 2014 starts NOW

2014-02-07 Thread Quim Gil
Last email before starting my holidays.

I just submitted the Wikimedia application for GSoC 2014. That is all
the bureaucracy we needed to fill at this point.

Two people have volunteered as org co-admins. Thank you! Let's decide
our roles if/when Wikimedia is selected.

This is still true.

Alright. If there is anything urgent related with GSoC or any of my
tasks please contact Sumana. Thank you!

[Wikitech-l] Google Summer of Code 2014 starts NOW

2014-02-04 Thread Quim Gil
Google Summer of Code 2014 has started.

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2014
(Thank you Raylton for creating this page)

The first step is to apply as Wikimedia organization before February 14.
I can do this, with your help:

* We need another org admin ready to work. I was the primary org admin
in GSoC 2013 and I'm also primary/only org admin in FOSS OPW and
Facebook Oen Academy. Google Code-in was different, with Andre and me
really sharing the org admin role. This brought better and more reliable
program administration, plus useful knowledge shared by more people for
future editions. Interested? Please reply.

* We need to add proposals with mentors and community buy-in under the
"Featured project ideas" section at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#Featured_project_ideas
. Either you step in now, or you wait at least six months until the next
call. Interested? Just edit the page. The sooner the better.

PS: I will be offline on holidays next week. I will submit the Wikimedia
application before leaving, almost week before the deadline. You will be
able to keep improving our proposal by improving the related wiki pages.
