Thanks to all mentors for their participation! Results are out - Wikimedia got accepted as a mentoring organization in GSoC 2023. There is still a month before the contributor application period begins (on March 20th), in case you would like to propose more projects. All the finalized ideas are published here: <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code/2023> [1]. For Outreachy, we have finalized two project ideas < https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreachy/Round_26> [2]; contributors who meet the eligibility criteria will be able to view the project details and contribute from March 6th onwards.
