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/ 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

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

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

Google are running their Summer of Code again this year. If you're not familiar with it, see: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ Interested orgs can apply already up until February 6th (just over a week away as I write). We've taken part many times before, and it's resulted in both new contributors and interesting new features - I think it's well worth applying again. We

Google are running their "Summer of Code" again this year - for background info see: http://code.google.com/soc/ We took part in 2011 and 2012, and we're going to apply again this year. Dan Colish and I are happy to act as admins again. I'll submit the application (which needs to be done between 18th and 29th March). I've updated the list of project ideas for students on

Hi Tejas, Thank you for your interest in Letor project in Xapian. We would definitely like to consider Letor for this year's GSoC project. What I would suggest you is, start playing with the code and get acquainted with it. The latest code can be obtained from http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/ GSoC2012/LTR Regards, Parth.

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

Google are holding a GSoC "Doc Camp" this year the week before the annual mentor summit - the dates for Doc Camp are 17-21 October, and the location is Google HQ in Mountain View, California, USA. A major part of this will be several Book Sprints for writing Quick Start guides for specific organisations taking part in GSoC. They're currently inviting proposals, and I'd like to

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

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

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

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 (for Syslinux, specifically),

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:

I'm happy to announce that the X.Org Foundation has been chosen to participate in this year's GSoC program! Students have from now until April 9th to submit their proposals. 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

All, The LLVM project has had many years of success with the Google Summer 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
