We're working on the execution of summer coding initiatives within Fedora. Effectively, what we're trying to do is take the [http://socghop.appspot.com/ Google Summer of Code (GSoC)] model and generalize and expand it to the notion of $FUNDING_SOURCE Summer of Code by providing sample implementations of alternative values of $FUNDING_SOURCE alongside our continued participation in GSoC.

Purpose: Oversee, define, and improve on the Fedora Project's work with students contributing as part of their classwork or summer internship, and do so in a way that provides a general framework re-deployable by other open source projects seeking to do the same.
