[xwiki-devs] [GSOC] XWiki is applying for GSoC 2015. Proposals and mentors needed!
Hello fellow XWiki community members, This year XWiki is planning to participate once more at Google's Summer of Code [1]. The organization registration period has already started (9th of February) and the deadline is the 20th of February: 19:00 UTC [2] (a bit more than a week from now). 1. We need to provide by then a list of proposals and assign mentors for the students that are going to implement them. I would like to ask everybody that wants to participate as a mentor from the XWiki organization to review the proposals [3] list (currently empty) and add as many interesting proposals as possible. The proposals can be either new, or they can be revived from previous years. Just navigate to the previous years [4], find the proposal you like and know about, go to its proposal page (click it) and press the "Clone to this year" link. Now you can assign yourself as lead for that project, update it's description if needed and wait for the student applications to start pouring [image: emoticon_smile] 2. We also need to submit the actual application [5] of the XWiki organization to participate to the GSoC 2015 project so I would also like to ask you to review it so that we have a better chance of being selected into the program. 3. If you feel that you would like to help on improving XWiki's GSoC guides and application forms, please find the tips for students [6] on XWiki's GSoC page, the student application form [7] and the lessons learned [8] from previous years participations. Thanks for your help, Eduard ---------- [1] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2015 [2] http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2015 [3] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/#HProposedProjects282...

Hi All, If anyone's interested in hacking a continuous integration server like thingy in XWiki, please feel free to add to: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/Continuousintegration... It's still a bit sketchy and I need to define a suitable scope for GSoC. If you have any thoughts, please feel free to share :) Best, - Asiri On Wed, Feb 11, 2015 at 1:10 PM, Eduard Moraru <enygma2002@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Asiri, Nice initiative! Also, I want to remind you and everyone else that we need to have a mentor assigned for the proposed projects. In the previous years we had a lot of projects without assigned mentors and they would only confuse students if nobody is serious about them. So please assign yourself as mentor if you are willing to supervise it ;) Thanks, Eduard On Mon, Feb 16, 2015 at 1:27 AM, Asiri Rathnayake < asiri.rathnayake@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, REMINDER: We need more project proposals and mentors willing to handle them, ASAP. The deadline is this Friday (20th of February: 19:00 UTC). We currently have just 8 proposals and just 3 possible mentors. If anyone else is interested, please take the time to propose/assign your mentoring projects.
