Anyone interested in SMW, i.e. the Open Semantic Data Association, applying to take part in this one?
The Google Code-In differs from the Google Summer of Code in a few ways: it's over the winter, not the summer; it's for high school students, not college students; and every student tries to complete as many little projects as possible (which can consist of documentation, bug fixes, etc.), instead of working on one big project. I talked to Lydia Pintscher, who handles the Google Code-In for KDE, and she basically described it as chaotic but useful. The deadline for applying is November 9, and then the program itself runs from November 21 to January 16, i.e. right during the holiday season for the Western countries. -Yaron ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Carol Smith <car...@google.com> Date: Mon, Oct 17, 2011 at 2:26 PM Subject: Invitation: Apply to be a Mentoring Organization for GCI To: Google Summer of Code Mentors List <google-summer-of-code-mentors-l...@googlegroups.com> Hi everyone, Starting today we are accepting applications from organizations who have participated in a previous Google Summer of Code (you!) to get involved with our contest for 13-17 year olds, Google Code-in [0] (GCI). If you haven’t read up about GCI, you can check out our announcement [1] to this list from Friday or read our blog post [2] about the contest. If your org has decided it would like to apply to participate in the contest, you can fill out the application [3] on Melange now. The deadline for applications is 1 November at 23:00 UTC. Please read over the rules for participating as an organization in GCI before applying, they can be found on the organization application [3] itself. Please remember to also read over our Information Page [4] for GCI org admins and mentors to make sure your org has the time and capacity to participate this year. We have made a couple changes to the workflow and the task management this year; please make sure you're familiar with them. We value your org’s past service to Google Summer of Code, and hope your org will consider participating in Google Code-in.
