As some of you may know, every year Google hosts the Google Summer of Code (GSoC), last year we participated with some decent results for a few projects. I was just sending this heads up to those whom may be interested in partaking as a mentor or student (even if you are already a fedora contributor) for a project within Fedora.
Basic requirements for students and ideas are below and find the full lowdown at [0].
What are the eligibility requirements for participation?
* You must be at least 18 years of age * You must currently be a full or part-time student (or have been accepted for the fall term) at an accredited university as of the student acceptance date * You must be eligible to work in the country you will reside in during the program * You have not already been accepted as a Student in GSoC more than once * You must reside in a country that is not currently embargoed by the United States. See Program Rules for more information.

Hopefully I will see some of you among the applications.
If you're planning to submit a project please let me know. I'd like to be able to help you, if needed, and to keep up with our successes so we can advertise them.

Good evening -
Does Fedora have a page for Summer coding ideas for 2017? There's one for 2016, though many of these may not be valid for this year.
Thanks Bryan

Hi again,
please guys, be patient and wait for our information. It will be visible and you should not miss it. The process goes as follows: 1. First we have to draft our org application (in process now) 2. Then we draft guidelines for mentors and ideas. 3. Only then we can call for ideas (and mentors) 4. At the end of March students will start applying - more info about the timeline: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline

Well, I would argue that we should start discussing ideas as early as possible and since that person declare a will to be a mentor on the infrastructure list, I would be very interested to know which project that person wishes to mentor, so that the infrastructure team can provide feedback as early as possible on the project.
While nothing is set in stone, I don't think we should prevent early engagements of the mentors and/or students around GSoC.

I am sure that the mentors are the upstream contributors to those projects, and also work with the infra team to make sure that we can actually maintain the services in future. It will be surprising if it is not the case.

Radka,
In agreement with Pierre, I respectfully decline to remove it from the lists on two accounts:
1) as Pierre stated, its NEVER too early to source talented mentors / ideas
2) GSoC is supposed to be a org wide thing, and spreading info far and wide within the project IS exactly what we should be doing, it prevents a lack of interest AND the always inevitable ' Can I get a deadline waiver, I only found out yesterday ( when the deadline was last wednesday) '
- GSoC is supposed to be a org wide thing, and spreading info far and
wide within the project IS exactly what we should be doing, it prevents a lack of interest AND the always inevitable ' Can I get a deadline waiver, I only found out yesterday ( when the deadline was last wednesday) '
1) As much as I appreciate that, the deadline is not "yesterday" yet, and we are on top of it. I agree that it is org-wide, however it doesn't mean that we should all now stand on our heads and flip tables. Wait for the appropriate entity (Bex & CommOps) to take care of the organization of things - and here I am not telling you to not think about ideas and what to mentor, I am specifically referring to the above asked question "Does Fedora have a page for Summer coding ideas for 2017?" and similar questions, to which there is but a single answer - Not yet, working on it.

What are the eligibility requirements for participation? * You must be at least 18 years of age * You must currently be a full or part-time student (or have been accepted for the fall term) at an accredited university as of the student acceptance date * You must be eligible to work in the country you will reside in during the program * You have not already been accepted as a Student in GSoC more than once * You must reside in a country that is not currently embargoed by the United States. See Program Rules for more information. Prospective students: read the Student Manual [1] Prospective Mentors: read the Mentors Manual [2] [0] https://developers.google.com/ open-source/gsoc/faq [1] https://developers.google.com/ open-source/gsoc/resources/manual#student_manual [2] https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/resources/man ual#mentor_manual Hopefully I will see some of you among the applications. -- Corey W Sheldon M:703.839.6609 <(703)%20839-6609>:|:D: 310.909.7672 <(310)%20909-7672> PGP:|:0x4B1616F5BDFCC807:|:0x151D53B9C62FA404:| |:0x418E43BCA33F2A72:|:|:0xA82F0594E76CB213:|:|:0x6B4FFDF3D89BCFA5:| |: https://keybase.io/linuxmodder:%7C:https://ameridea.github.io:%7C |: https://cs.danychtech.com A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at. --Bruce Lee Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own. --Bruce Lee Any man willing to sacrifice security for convenience, is deserving of neither. -- Benjamin Franklin Disclaimer: All correspondence shall be deemed of a sensitive nature, and not re-distributed without good cause or per-approval.

Radka,
In agreement with Pierre, I respectfully decline to remove it from the lists on two accounts:
- as Pierre stated, its NEVER too early to source talented mentors /
ideas
- GSoC is supposed to be a org wide thing, and spreading info far and
wide within the project IS exactly what we should be doing, it prevents a lack of interest AND the always inevitable ' Can I get a deadline waiver, I only found out yesterday ( when the deadline was last wednesday) ' --

I should also say on that topic, that I would much rather see a single well formed *announcement* once we have everything ready, rather than chaotic emails in random mailing lists.
I guess this will be my last email on this topic but I'm quite confused. What would this announcement be about? That Fedora wishes to participate to GSoC? That we're looking for projects and mentors ? (Wasn't that exactly what the original email of this thread was about?) If I read the timeline correctly the deadline for organization to apply is in 3 days, which means that in 3 days we will need to have a list of projects to propose to Google for review so that they can check and see if they are interested and willing to invest in them.
As a community, I do think each and every sub-project should be thinking on whether they are interested in having GSoC student this year, so there should be a lot of chaotic emails on all sort of random mailing lists, so that people can then come back to you and bex who are apparently willing to organize GSoC this year, with proposals and mentors for them.
With a deadline in 3 days, I do not know how you are planning on coming up with a list of proposals without having asked the different part of the Fedora community for proposals and ideas, but I guess I will see this when the announcement comes in :)

- As much as I appreciate that, the deadline is not "yesterday" yet, and
we are on top of it. I agree that it is org-wide, however it doesn't mean that we should all now stand on our heads and flip tables. Wait for the appropriate entity (Bex & CommOps) to take care of the organization of things - and here I am not telling you to not think about ideas and what to mentor, I am specifically referring to the above asked question "Does Fedora have a page for Summer coding ideas for 2017?" and similar questions, to which there is but a single answer - Not yet, working on it.
But this thread is not a follow-up of that particular question which you indeed answered quickly and properly.
This thread is a follow-up on an email that has been sent to the infrastructure list where someone volunteered to mentor a student and me just wanting to know what this person is volunteering to mentor. I mean this is GSoC and I guess we're still in the planning phase trying to gather subjects, right? So if that person wishes to be a mentor, I guess they have a specific subject in mind, no? Well that was the source of my inquiry.
 And on that note I would like to ask this thread to end here - it
doesn't belong into all these mailing lists.

I was referring to the following - not infra specific: commops@lists.fedoraproject.org, join@lists.fedoraproject.org, infrastructure@lists.fedoraproject.org,
Well that is infra :)
kernel@lists.fedoraproject.org, users@lists.fedoraproject.org, nirik@fedoraproject.org, pingou@fedoraproject.org,
And these last two are two people from infra. Also, you may want to check your archive as this thread has only been occurring on the infrastructure list, nowhere else (even if it was originally started across multiple lists, I agree).

Hi Pierre,
This thread is a follow-up on an email that has been sent to the
infrastructure list where someone volunteered to mentor a student and me just wanting to know what this person is volunteering to mentor.
Nope, that's different thread. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/infrastructure@lists.fedorapro...
What would this announcement be about?
About "Info here, go here, write down stuff here." - relevant info for mentors and ideas. I don't think that someone can forcefully come up with an idea, if they want to participate a simple reminder "go write down your idea" is enough, they already carry that idea.
And my whole point (extremely misunderstood and met with a lot of hate) was that there is no point in sending this all to... Kernels? Join sig? Etc. If anything devel would be a better place.
Best regards, Radka

misunderstood clearly but hate I would assure there are none on my part. I would even be curious to know what made you think so, so that I can, in the future, avoid giving that impression again. This entire discussion has (on my side) merely been trying to understand your emails with the limited info that I have.
was that there is no point in sending this all to... Kernels? Join sig? Etc. If anything devel would be a better place.
I can't reply for Corey who wrote the original email but I would guess he tried to give an heads-up to people who contributed to GSoC last year, try to see if they are thinking about GSoC already. To give an example, if it hadn't been for Corey I would have had no idea that the dead-line for GSoC subject proposals was that close, GSoC is a summer program in my head and we're at the beginning of February so it was really not in my calendar as something to think about right now.
Devel is not necessarily the best place for these types of discussion because not everyone is subscribed or follows carefuly the list and also because devel talks about a lot of subjects that would not (imho) result is GSoC subjects. devel-announce would be a better place imho as it's lower traffic and thus likely raises more attention (and hopefully reaches more of our sub-projects).
Hoping this clarifies a little bit the situation, Pierre
Hey Pierre,
I meant more of a reminder rather than discussion being sent to devel (or devel-announce, as you said..) if we are trying to catch more people.
And yeah the deadline has really bad timing with devconf and fosdem... >_< If anyone wants to help reviewing the wiki pages for what's possibly invalid, you're welcome to, but please lets move the organization related conversation into summer-coding mailing list maybe...
Best regards, Radka

-All the original lists, now in BCC - with a new list in To.
Note: My webmail client is terrible and won't let me directly fix the reply-to, so please mind it and lets move this traffic to the GSoC list.
I am replying to this everyone on the original thread as we need to work together to make this deadline.
I have started an etherpad with the requirements for the Organizational Application (due on Feb 9 - 2 days!):
http://etherpad.osuosl.org/TFx0SpB4S6
Please add anything you have and suggest text! It is easier to edit than create, so even if you aren't confident, toss some ideas on the pad. English grammar and editing is easy - coming up with new text is not!
We also need to iterate ideas. Radka has has been working on the updated wiki pages and you will find them at:
Main page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2017 Student application: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2017/Student_Application_Process Ideas: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Summer_coding_ideas_for_2017
Please add your project ideas and additional edits there.
You may find some source material in the wiki and here: http://etherpad.osuosl.org/fedora-gsoc-welcome-2016
Corey Sheldon - thank you for kicking off this thread.
I think we can still make this deadline with our powerful community effect.
Thinking forward to 2018, I intend to make this process easier by committing our final answers to something durable, like a pagure repo so they don't get lost. This will help us not have to recreate all the data next year. I have also added a calendar reminder for myself to remember to start the application earlier and to start us on project generation earlier. This snuck up on me this year. I firmly believe that things only get to do that once :).
regards,
bex
