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 (about two weeks 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. If

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).

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 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

Good news everybody: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Google Summer of Code <summerofcode-noreply at google.com> Date: 13 February 2018 at 06:11 Subject: GSoC 2018: Xapian Search Engine Library has been accepted as a mentor organization!

Agreed. I think it's worth thinking about what GSoC is actually about, which according to the website: "Google Summer of Code is a global program focused on introducing students to open source software development." Strongly favouring students with prior experience in community involvement with LLVM is somewhat missing the point, and I think we should be mindful of the differences

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:

Hello all, GSOC is around the corner, and the LLVM projects plans to participate again this year. For those who don’t know about GSOC, students are proposing a project that they will work on for 3 months. Amongst other, one goal for LLVM is to mentor students to become good developers and also contributors to the LLVM project (or user/advocate of LLVM for building other cool projects). A key

I'll make sure to keep up with all the expectations and try my best to produce good

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

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
