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.
