Description

We should be connecting mentors with the new application system at https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com.

I guess they need an invite, and we should be getting things connected before April 22, 2016

Event Timeline

Tony, I think we can wait on this until it is clear which projects we do have students for and are finally going to be a part of GSoC.

Ah. we will have to get this completed fast so that mentors can take a look at proposals submitted for their project :)

Do you need me to take any action?

So, going through the proposals on the GSoC website, we seem to have proposals for:

  • Reading List
  • Extension for page creation/editing notifications
  • Accuracy review of Wikipedia
  • Contributors List
  • HTML email support (very popular!)
  • IFTTT
  • Improving static analysis for wikipedia
  • Pywikibot Support for Thanks
  • Port catimages.py to pywikibot-core

And none for...

  • Expand Link Metric capability for reporting to Wikipedia Library partners
  • Make the Education program dashboard usable for all languages and projects (Outreachy proposal only)

:(

So we can skip adding mentors for these two to the website.
