GSOC application for ASF / last steps

2011-03-01 Thread Norman Maurer
Hi there,

I plan to submit the application for GSOC within this week. I see we
have three possible co-admins: Rahul Akolkar, Uli Stärk, Mladen Turk.
So all of you are still happy with helping out ? Or someone wants to
step back ? Just to be sure if we need to flip a coin or just choose
the one which replied first

Thanks,
Norman

Before we finally submit the application...

It's my understanding that it now has one new question: do we know of
any small/new orgs or projects that might want to be involved with
GSoC?

If anyone on the list has suggestions, it would be great to hear them
:-) They don't need to be formal organisations - if there's a project
you know that you think has someone who would be willing to mentor a
student, please shout!

Just want to double check - this is all precursor to any mentors signing on and 
apache projects proposing jira tickets, right?

We had several co-admins in the last years and that worked fine IMO,
so I don't think you necessarily need to choose just one.

Or does GSoC require just one co-admin?
Even if that's the case, I think we can have several people internally
to manage the program.

Hi Bertrand,

I thought only one co-admin is possible. So even better. Thanks for
the feedback :)
