Google Summer of Code 2017: Call for mentors for Pharo Consortium
Heartiest Congratulations ! Pharo Consortium has been selected as a mentor organisation for Google Summer of Code 2017. Google Summer of Code is a global program focused on introducing students to open source software development. Students work on a 3 month programming project with an open source organisation during their break from university. Read more at https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ How the program works ? Organizations: Open source projects apply to be mentor organizations. Once accepted, organizations discuss possible ideas with students and then decide on the proposals they wish to mentor for the summer. They provide mentors to help guide each student through the program. Mentors: Existing contributors with the organizations can choose to mentor a student project. Mentors and students work together to determine appropriate milestones and requirements for the summer. Mentor interaction is a vital part of the program. A mentor may propose or endorse a project and each project has to be about Pharo or its ecosystem (e.g., a library). Projects will be mentored by one or more mentors and executed by one student. Students: Students contact the mentor organizations they want to work with and write up a project proposal for the summer. If accepted, students spend a month integrating with their organizations prior to the start of coding. Students then have three months to code, meeting the deadlines agreed upon with their mentors. Student coding period: May 30 - Aug 29 (Entire timeline can be viewed at: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/#timeline). Student stipend: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/help/student-stipends We are currently at the phase of identifying mentors and projects. The next phases will be about students selecting projects, and the community selecting the projects with their associated mentors and students which will be sponsored by the GSOC program. How to register ? Simply by replying to this email and joining the Slack channel... to have more discussion about what project the mentor will take up, what she/he wants at the end of the coding period and then we can invite them to the GSoC org dashboard).
