Hi Sally, > Unfortunately, we did not receive the anticipated response from the RocketMQ and IoTDB mentors before the deadline, and so the opportunity to participate wasn’t possible this year.
I come from IoTDB community (and actually I propose some tasks about IoTDB for GSoC2020 and they can be found on GSoc 2020 Ideas list). I know several persons leaving proposals under the issues but then I did not receive any formal emails (from Google or some other formal organizations) from Apri to now... Maybe it is because IoTDB is just an incubating project and I have no suitable permissions for mentoring that... I do not know why RocketMQ community did not have responses as they are TLP and it seems the idea presenters are IPMC (who can be mentors I think..), like @vongosl...@apache.org <vongosl...@apache.org> .
