I will certainly volunteer (to mentor) next year if I feel I can add value.

Public good is a nebulous concept, but it is something that each of the
folks who sign up as mentors judges independently when they are rating the
projects and talking about them.
Most of the folks who are offering to mentor have been involved in the
community for quite some time and have a pretty
Hi Edward,
Thanks for this comprehensive answer (and also thanks to participants in the
follow-up dissuasion).
How is the "public good" determined? (sounds rather Benthamite). I would have
been disappointed if "charts using diagrams" had not been selected yet I don't
recall being canvassed.

thanks for these references all.
As some folks who help with GSOC mentoring have pointed out offline, this
summers work is not to be a research project, but a concretely achievable
over the summer by a single student project. if we hit hard obstacles i'll

Similarly (to some degree), in the ML world John Reppy had a very nice
system that employed user customization via combinators rather than
inference to generate application/library specific FFIs, see:

Ooo. Thanks Jason.
That looks like a fleshed out version of the approach I was leaning towards
at least thinking about. I'll check it out when I have time in a few days.

indeed, i'm the principal mentor for this project, though as mentioned
Ian-Woo will hopefully be helping out too.
I'm going to *help* focus the project on being a tool thats not focused on
QT, though if something nice can be worked out in that direction, great!
indeed, I suspect Edward, Ian-Woo a
When submissions are put in, there is a way for mentors to talk to students
to ask for more details. Those don't show up in the published abstract you
can see at the end.

Interesting, as this has been done at least twice before. Is there a public
write-up of what's going to be different this time?

The majority of the rejections are of precisely that form, or just were
slightly out-competed by another similar proposal in their space.
These items either are stated or should be stated in the student
application guidelines, but a successful summer of code submission probably
has most of the fol

You can if you rewrite the key points of proposal to retain the overall
message, but remove identi
Hi Dominic,
The proposal is admittedly rather unfortunately opaque.
The parts I can shed light on:
Students come up with proposals with the help of the community and then
submit them to google-melange.com.
A bunch of folks from the haskell community sign up as potential mentors,
vote on and dis
Hi Edward,
Although the project I am interested in (as a user) has been accepted :-), I
can't help feeling the selection process is a bit opaque. Is it documented
somewhere and I just missed it? Apologies if I did.
BTW I appreciate all the hard work that goes into the selection process.

We've worked our way through the project approval process for another year.
This year we accepted 9 projects for haskell.org in general and are hosting
2 additional projects for darcs as an umbrella organization.
