Hi folks, someone in #kde-www mentioned at many links to projects.kde.org are still on techbase, so I logged in and started cleaning them up. This page: https://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Sources/en has loads of links, and I don't seem to be able to find Quickgit alternatives. Examples: "Th

Fwd: [GSoC Mentors] Announcing Google Summer of Code 2017 and Google Code-in 2016

Hello folks, it is time to start thinking of tasks you would like students to do this fall-winter. Remember, these tasks are for teens who are dealing with schoolwork and teen life, so they need to be small enough to be done within a day or two. In addition, we always need "beginner" tasks, for ki

Google Code-in begins soon: Nov. 28, 2016
