there are 'students' interested in an spending their summer hbase

To: pmcs@apache.org, private@incubator.apache.org, code-awards@apache.org


It is time for your project to start preparing for GSoC if you have
not already done so.

Things you need to do if you want to consider being a mentor:

- understand what it means to be a mentor [1]

- propose your project ideas [2] (the process is different this year)

- subscribe to code-awards@apache.org

We need your project ideas now, so please get to work, see [2]

You can see the current list of ideas at [3]

J-D did ask Jeff Dean to come to the HUG9 down at Moziilla last week
but he had a previous appointment.  Maybe he'd know (smile)?

I'd say that under Apache there'd be one or two slots only.  Its
usually oversubscribed.  I can mentor if needs be but fine if someone
else wants to do it (MIght be better since I kinda messed up our
application last year not submitting proper form on time).

Awesome! I wanted to ask you about this the other day. Also, is there  
a way to determine interest for hbase support inside Google? I know  
there is something for hadoop.

Andrei Savu (he did a hbase presentation at wurbe when I did mine)  
does his internship at Adobe Romania :). He's working with HBase for  
something related to our work, right near us.

I'm going to advertise the summer of code. Let's think if there is  
more that coupe be done in this direction!
