GSOC application for ASF / last steps
Hi there,
I plan to submit the application for GSOC within this week. I see we
have three possible co-admins: Rahul Akolkar, Uli Stärk, Mladen Turk.
So all of you are still happy with helping out ? Or someone wants to
step back ? Just to be sure if we need to flip a coin or just choose
the one which replied first....
Thanks,
Norman

Excellent :-) Please ask your chair to mention the ASF as a ... I'm
not sure what they're calling it?
In return, you'll be expected to "mentor the mentors" a little bit, be
available if they have questions (you can bring them back here if you
don't know the answers), etc. If it's a research project, I'll guess
that the mentors are already used to mentoring, so this should be a
pretty easy task :-)

Yep, it sure does! It could be anything from three people with some
code on Google Project Hosting, to a full-blown incorporated
non-profit whatever :-) And yes, it should be someone who's
preparing/willing to apply :-)

As far as I understood it help to get new orgs/projects into GSOC. So
for example some project which is hosted on sourceforge or something
like that.

Does that include small projects that haven't participated before but are already preparing to apply

Before we finally submit the application...
It's my understanding that it now has one new question: do we know of
any small/new orgs or projects that might want to be involved with
GSoC?
If anyone on the list has suggestions, it would be great to hear them
:-) They don't need to be formal organisations - if there's a project
you know that you think has someone who would be willing to mentor a
student, please shout!

Hi Bertrand,
I thought only one co-admin is possible. So even better. Thanks for
the feedback :)

We had several co-admins in the last years and that worked fine IMO,
so I don't think you necessarily need to choose just one.
Or does GSoC require just one co-admin?
Even if that's the case, I think we can have several people internally
to manage the program.

Just want to double check - this is all precursor to any mentors signing on and apache projects proposing jira tickets, right?

Hey Norman,
have you prepared a draft of the application already? Can we put this up somewhere for
review/amending? In case you want to add me to the list of co-admins, my melange link_id is uli.
