The application deadline for GSoC and FOSS OPW has passed. The pool of candidates to choose from includes
* 43 GSoC proposals from 42 candidates * 18 OPW proposals from 18 candidates, one of them a GSoC candidate as well There are many projects that have received several proposals. In a few hours the dust will settle in the wiki pages, where many candidates are currently syncing their information. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2014 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/FOSS_Outreach_Program_for_Women/Round_8 Everybody is invited to join the selection process. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Selection_process All mentors must join the GSoC or OPW review websites in order to join the private evaluation of candidates. The rest of the community is encouraged to help reviewing proposals and asking hard questions to candidates and mentors in their respective talk pages or Bugzilla reports. By April 7 we need to decide how many slots we want to request in each program. In GSoC we request a number of slots to Google, which we might or might not get. In OPW we fund some slots, we might request more, and then we might get them or not. Questions? Just ask. -- Quim Gil Engineering Community Manager @ Wikimedia Foundation http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Qgil _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
