Hi, all FOSS Outreach Program for Women participants need to sign in as candidates or mentors at https://opw.gnome.org/ Mentors can find specific documentation at https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/Admin/System The deadline for submissions is Oct 22 2014, 07:00 pm UTC Selection decisions will be posted on Nov 12 2014, 07:00 pm UTC As a novelty in Round 9, all Ascend Project participants, regardless of gender, are welcome to apply. Ascent is a mentorship and barrier-removing accelerator program designed to explicitly invite, include, and support adult learners in making a first technical contribution to Open Source software. http://ascendproject.org/participants/portland/index.html After some discussions, this is a first step expanding this outreach program to other groups under-represented in the free software community. I'm personally very happy to see actual progress! Kudos to the GNOME Foundation and the FOSS OPW supporters. -- Quim Gil Engineering Community Manager @ Wikimedia Foundation http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Qgil _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list wikitec...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l -- Regards, T.Shrinivasan My Life with GNU/Linux : http://goinggnu.wordpress.com Free E-Magazine on Free Open Source Software in Tamil : http://kaniyam.com Get CollabNet Subversion Edge : http://www.collab.net/svnedge _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc ILUGC Mailing List Guidelines: http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines
