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

Google's Summer of Code is happening again this year. If you're not familiar with GSoC, see: http://code.google.com/soc/ We decided to apply some time ago, but applications for orgs are now open and need to be in by this coming Friday (20th) so we need to get things a bit more organised. Accepted orgs are due to be announced on March 2nd, and students can apply between March 16th and

Google are running their Summer of Code again this year. If you're not familiar with it, see: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/ We decided to apply a while back, but it's now time for orgs to actually apply - the deadline is just a few days away (Feb 20th). The main priorities right now are: * Refreshing the list of project ideas. I've done some cleaning up, but

Google are running their Summer of Code again this year. If you're not familiar with it, see: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ Org applications are already open and close on January 23rd (this phase is earlier than in past years, which I think is a good thing as it gives students more time to talk to orgs). We've taken part a number of times before, and it's resulted in both

Google are running their Summer of Code again this year. If you're not familiar with it, see: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/ Last year was very successful and I think we probably want to apply again this year, assuming there are a sufficient number of people interested in mentoring to make it worthwhile. Org application open on 19th (this Thursday) though the deadline is

We've decided to apply for Google's Summer of Code this year - for background info on the programme see: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/program/home/google/gsoc2011 We applied last year, and while we didn't get a place, the feedback was positive and we were encouraged to apply again this year. I'm happy to act as admin (which I've done for SWIG in the past, so I know

Dear Olly, I am very excited to contribute in open source community through the platform of Google Summer of Code 2011. I have visited the ideas of ?Xapian? at http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas for GSoC 2011. I am interested in working on ?Improve Existing Bindings?. The reason for my interest is that I have previously worked on .NET related projects both in VB and C#. I also have

Hello everyone, I have recently completed my engineering in Computer Science. I came across Xapian while looking for GSoC organisations. I was browsing through the ideas page and it was written that you would be willing to mentor anyone interested in working on those projects. I am interested in this: http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas#Project:LearningtoRank and this:

The deadline for students to apply has now passed (it was 19:00 UTC on March 25th). Many thanks you to all who applied. This year Xapian received 31 completed proposals (exactly the same total as when we last took part in 2014), plus another 2 we only had a draft version of. Two were total junk, proposing to implement something unrelated to Xapian and presumably submitted verbatim to several

Hi, Can someone tell me what was Gaurav Arora's exact contribution in the Clustering Search Results part during GSoC 2014? I guess that will be more helpful in understanding his code.

Hi, I am Jiarong Wei (irc: VcamX). I?m a 3rd year computer science student at Zhejiang University, China. I?m very willing to contribute to Xapian as part of GSoC 2014. Now I?m at Simon Fraser University, Canada, as an exchange student. I?ll go back to China on the end of April. I think it doesn?t matter I?ll change the time zone :) From the list of project?s ideas, Learning to Rank interests me

I'd suggest that a good thing to look at would be functional tests of the metrics and algorithms in Hanxiao Sun's work from this summer. You'll generally need to go either to the original paper, or find an alternative implementation, to build up a series of tests that demonstrate that the implementation is doing what it is supposed to. Xapian-core contains a test framework which it
