It's still not clear to me the difference between GSoC and Outreachy program. IIUC, GSoC interns are paid by Google, which I appreciate their generosity. But who pays Outreachy interns? Is this the same that some companies pay for it? like the companies logo on https://www.outreachy.org/. However I'm confused that Debian is listed as sponsor on https://www.outreachy.org. Why Debian sponsors other programs while Debian needs others' sponsors? -- Shengjing Zhu
