Perhaps if a student shows interest in a given topic, someone might be inspired to sign up as a mentor? Keeping the list of ideas up...

...tions, amongst which 18 projects have been selected for funding. Unfortunately, due to the limited number of spots available, we were unable to fund many first rate applications. However, we encourage students to work together with us all year round. The FreeBSD Project is always willing to help mentor students learn more about operating system development through our normal community mailing lists and development forums. Contributing to an open source software project is a valuable component of a computer science education and great preparation for a career in software development. More inform...

Thanks for reaching out on the matter Ilia. I am not to be relied on. If you're lucky, I might be able to take some questions about past work, but cannot make a solid time commitment that warrants being a mentor. Of course, the mentor does not necessarily have to have the deepest understanding of the subject matter. *At the end of the GSOC* a good student should be trusted with having more knowledge on the specific topic than the mentor. That being said, DVFS is fidgetty and the outcome is binary (it e...

...of Code project and we would really like to continue our participation. However, without the support of more community members, we fear that we may not be selected as an organization this year. They are already reviewing projects and to improve our chances of participation we need more projects and mentors listed on the GSOC 2018 webpage. https://llvm.org/OpenProjects.html#gsoc18 Time is of the essence here. If you can think of a project that you think would be a useful addition or improvement to LLVM or a sub-project, please list it. If you personally can’t mentor then reach out to others who mig...

...osals. Students will be looking at https://www.x.org/wiki/SummerOfCodeIdeas/ and https://www.x.org/wiki/ToDo/ for ideas. Please take a moment to review those lists to see: - are these valid ideas? - should items be removed? - are there items that can be added? Also, please consider signing up to mentor. All the student enthusiasm in the world can't be put to any use if there are no mentors. A mentor only needs to provide technical direction and grading, all other aspects of the program will be handled by myself. If you have any updates to the ideas pages or are interested in mentoring, pleas...

Google's "Summer of Code" is on again. If you're not familiar with GSoC, see: http://code.google.com/soc/ We had a brief discussion on IRC, and we have enough potential mentors to make it worth applying again. Org applications are open Feb 3rd-14th. Accepted orgs are announced on Feb 24th, and students can apply between March 10th and 21st, but the keen ones have already started to talk to orgs. The full timeline is here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/goo...

Hi all, Some days ago I attempted to submitt Syslinux as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2012, but Google rejected it. As kernel.org has been accepted as a mentoring organization, and also listed Syslinux as one of the things they intend to develop, we can work with them under their umbrella. As I'm currently the only mentor of kernel.org...

Some that come to mind are the Common Tracing Format, SQL (to be loaded into databases), etc. I'm volunteering to be a mentor for the XRay projects too. Hope this helps!

Hi all, I have a question related to GSoC. One of my students submitted an idea [1] for a GSoC project and I would be interested in (co-)mentoring this project but I'm unsure of the qualification requirements for acting as a mentor. Is there anyone that can clarify the requirements here? I have been working with LLVM for several years now but mostly on projects outside of the main LLVM repository. At our university we are curren...

Dear All, I'm afraid this applies to LLVM as well.

I was misconstrued as having insulted Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew. My words were twisted and misinterpreted and I feel that there is a need to explain myself and set the record straight.

...ted: https://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas Ideas do *NOT* have to be for work on Xapian itself - projects related to Xapian in other software are within scope (e.g. integrating Xapian into a framework, or adding Xapian search to an application). You'll need to provide mentoring related to the other software, but we can help out with Xapian-specific questions. Ideas don't need to be fully planned out - we expect the students to do some research, planning and to discuss the project as part of getting from the project idea to their proposal. But we do ne...

...ticed). The full timeline is here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2015 The main priorities right now are: * Refreshing the list of project ideas.
