Apache is participating once again in the Outreachy program [1], a remote internship program where interns contribute to free and open source software communities over a three month full-time stipend. This program is somewhat comparable to Google Summer of Code, though the eligibility requirements for both projects and interns are somewhat different. Outreachy's goal is to support people from groups underrepresented in the technology industry. Outreachy interns will work remotely with mentors on projects ranging from programming, user experience, documentation, illustration, and graphic design, to data science.
An FAQ [2] is available for those looking for details on project and mentor requirements. If you would like to mentor, co-mentor, or otherwise get involved in making a project proposal (or multiple proposals), register at [3] and click "Submit a Project Proposal" to mentor a new proposal or follow the other form to co-mentor an existing project proposal once available. Questions can be emailed to d...@diversity.apache.org mailing list or to the Apache Outreachy coordinators directly at mattsic...@apache.org, ka...@apache.org, and awa...@apache.org, or they can be sent to #outreachy-general on the-asf.slack.com. ## Timeline 07 Mar 2021: deadline for mentors to submit project proposals 15 Mar 2021: beginning of applicant contribution period 16 Apr 2021: end of applicant contribution period 10 May 2021: deadline for selecting interns from applicants 12 May 2021: intern selection finalized by Outreachy 17 May 2021: intern selection publicly announced 24 May 2021: beginning of internship 24 Aug 2021: end of internship (can be extended if necessary) [1]: https://www.outreachy.org/ [2]: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/EDI/Outreachy+FAQ [3]: https://www.outreachy.org/communities/cfp/apache/ -- Matt Sicker Secretary, Apache Software Foundation VP, Logging Services, ASF --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
