Summer Coding SIG: Difference between revisions

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.

Students need to get on the mailing list and write applications!
Mailing list and GSoC website.

What are we doing?

We are on the GSoC 2013 program

How can you help?

Right now, join our #Communication channels and introduce yourself and what you're interested in - we're working together to define more formal roles for those who want to know their time investment beforehand. That discussion will be carried out on the list, and the more formal roles will be announced on the Fedora mailing lists and planet when they are ready.

Communication

Mailing List

The project mailing list is the main discussion location for all students and mentors: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/summer-coding
The mentors use one or either of these lists:
- http://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/summer-coding-mentors
- https://groups.google.com/group/redhat-summer-mentors

IRC

-One thing we need to do is build up a bit of a community between all the participants. Since all our students and mentorees are working on widely different projects, there isn't alot of social common ground. Finding icebreakers and neutral conversation points will help create a better community between the mentors and the students. This will also encourage better cultural awareness from the students from different backgrounds.

-If we get the students on the platform right after they are accepted, it can be a great tool to help in the community bonding process. We could have an open space where other community members can join and 'meet the new students'.
