[ANN] Google Summer of Code is Open to all Students!
Hi everybody,
The Apache Software Foundation is participating in GSoC again this
year, and CouchDB is on the project list of course!
By the end of the summer, we hope you've above all, had fun, and we've
enabled you to make a valued contribution, and ideally help you
continue in your involvement with the CouchDB project.
## I'm a student, how do I start?
Check out some of the ideas at http://s.apache.org/couchdb_gsoc2013 or
suggest your own ones. Please subscribe to our developers mailing list
mailto:dev@couchdb.apache.org http://couchdb.apache.org/#mailing-list
and join us at #couchdb-dev on irc://irc.freenode.net/couchdb-dev to
talk about what you're interested in.
You'll need to pick your projects and submit proposals from 22nd April
to 3rd May.
## I'm interested in being a mentor for the CouchDB project!
Thanks! Please read up on
http://community.apache.org/guide-to-being-a-mentor.html and contact
dch@ for more details. Previous mentors suggest the effort is around
5h per week on average. Please review the topics list and feel free to
make any adjustments.
Please pass this on to your local user groups, universities, etc. Thanks!
For more information on Google Summer of Code itself, timelines and
proposals, visit the Melange website

I will actually do a follow up Tweet over the weekend, inviting people to
get involved. We have quite a short time frame to get this up and running,
so there's no harm about promoting it more than once.

Excellent. Retweeted.
Everybody else, please do the same:
https://twitter.com/CouchDB/status/327779248184115200
Dave, can you update the blog post to suggest that people contact
dev@about being a mentor? (At the moment, it says to contact you
directly, but
I'd like to get that stuff on the list if possible.)
Also, the <h2> elements should probably be changed so they are consistent
with the rest of the blog.
(I would do these edits myself, but don't feel comfortable editing a blog
post you wrote without your permission.)
Also, if you'd like to upvote, etc:

In, fact this would make a good blog post too.
Perhaps, massage this into a blog post, and then tweet a link to the blog?
