Financial IS for Fedora project
by Uditha Bandara Wijerathna 13 Apr '13

13 Apr '13

Hi, Although I was sticking in to the Web Hosting Control panel project[0], there were some difficulties to contact the mentor. Since I'm already an ambassador for fedora project I thought about involving in this project[1] and contribute to it contentiously after GSoC. I would like to make a small suggestion, how about using Python instead of PHP for this project? I'll discuss further about this project with Buddhike.

Google Melange | Registration deadlines
by Sarup Banskota 12 Apr '13

12 Apr '13

Hi Buddhike, Greetings. You mentioned on the mailing list about less than 8 days remaining for the application submission deadlines. But the Melange timeline says it starts on the 22nd, Were you referring to something else? Is there any process I'm missing out? Also, are there any deadlines to adding student proposals to the wiki? Finally at the time of evaluation, does the team refer to the wiki, or to the text file submitted though melange? Thank you, Sarup Banskota

It is my great pleasure to inform you on behalf the Fedora Summer Coding Group that the Fedora Project has been selected for the Google Summer of Code 2013 program and Fedora project[1] will be featuring for the 8th time. We have lot of expectations for this year program and do believe we could earn some long term contributors towards the project. As always it would be very interesting to work with young developers from universities. Students please keep eye on the mailing list ….

Hi all, I have been looking at the melange page displaying the selected organizations for a while now, but there seem to be a few more organizations to add their entries. I don't see Fedora on the list yet, did it make through this year? :) Hoping for the best. Thank you, Sarup Banskota

GSoC Proposal Format | Dealing with images/mockups
by Sarup Banskota 08 Apr '13

08 Apr '13

Hi all, I'm an undergrad from India, and was in the process of gathering resources for GSoC. I have decided on a project under Fedora (assuming it gets selected). In the #gsoc channel on freenode, I was told the proposal will need to be submitted in the text format, unless melange makes some changes this year. However, I would like to include some images and mock-ups to support my proposal. I read through several pages on past projects, and managed to dig up this proposal[1]<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2012/Student_Application_Zuhao/IsItFedor…>, which seems to be in-line with what I want to do. So, I wanted to know if while looking at applications, you refer to the submissions students make on the Fedora wiki pages, or to the one submitted through melange? I could of course add links to the text proposal, but then I'm slightly apprehensive of adding too many links into the proposal as they could get ignored. Would love some help. :) Thank you, Sarup Banskota [1]- http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSOC_2012/Student_Application_Zuhao/IsItFedor…

Google Summer of Code-Introduction
by Avik Pal 07 Apr '13

07 Apr '13

Hello, I'm Avik, 3rd yr (junior) bachelor CS student from Bengal Engineering & Science University,Shibpur. I went through the GSOC '13 ideas list and found the project *Fedora Application for Fedora Robotics Suite* very interesting. I also would like to say that I also fulfill all the necessary prerequisites given in the project ideas page. A little about myself(you may wanna skip this) I have about 4 years of programming experience, I am the coordinator of the Software Club in my University and help first and second year students with Algorithms, I sometimes also take coding sessions here. My team qualified for the ACM-ICPC 2012 Regionals(only team selected from my university in that region). I also have over two years experience in robotics (have worked with arduino and especially liked writing those PID codes!!). I'm hoping to participate in GSoC since while I'm an avid open-source enthusiast, I haven't had any chance in contributing to something this big before and it's about time to fix that.You can find some of my toy projects at https://github.com/avikpal I have been going through the links given in your page and documentations here and there, maybe you can help me with some useful resources so that right away I can start contributing by fixing small bugs and in this way sharpen my skills before GSOC actually starts. I will be accessible by email and through IRC (nick avikp at freenode), but since my time zone is UTC+5:30, I might not be accessible at all times.
