Hi all, GSoC has started and the timeline is proceeding quickly (https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/).
GNU is going to apply until February 9, and by February 27 I expect them to be accepted to the program, which will make LilyPond applicable as well. Students will apply between March 20 and April 3, but we expect them to get in touch with us earlier. This and the fact that the project ideas list might be relevant for GNU's application as well suggests that we update our page ASAP, preferably by February 9. I'm quite positive that having updated the ideas page had its part in having two projects last year. So please everybody think about possible projects we can put on our ideas list on http://lilypond.org/google-summer-of-code.html. Projects should be possible to achieve for someone new to LilyPond within three months of (full-time) work, and it is necessary to have someone ready to mentor the project. If you make a suggestion it's not necessary to volunteer for that project at the same time, although it would make things easier ;-) Best Urs PS: I've also provided a patch containing a section with recommendations to potential students. They draw from my own experience as a mentor last year and suggestions discussed both on the mentors' mailing list and the mentors' summit last year. Please consider these paragraphs too, as they may need more refinement and discussion. -- u...@openlilylib.org https://openlilylib.org http://lilypondblog.org _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
