[Introduction] Hi!

[Madi Paris]

Hi all!
My name is Madi Paris and I am a first year Computer Science major at
Michigan Technological University and I am really interested in working
with the Fedora Project for GSOC 2016 on the support for end-of-life
notification project.  I have experience as a Red Hat System Administrator
and programming in Java, Python, and C/C++ primarily.  I was a part of GSOC
for summer 2015 with Systers and would love to start getting more involved
in the Fedora Project and I think GSOC would be a great place to start!
Thanks,
Madi Paris

Madi,


Welcome to the  team.


Hate to sound like I'm rushing you,  however proposals are  due by 
1900UTC This Friday so if you haven't looked at the  GSoC wiki [1]
please do -- in the event you have  wiki login issues pleae head to
#fedora-admin or #fedora-commops on irc and indicate you need a  cla+1
push for  wiki access.


Look forward to your proposal.

Hi Madi, welcome to the GSoC 2016 mailing list! We're glad to have you here.

Awesome to hear you have experience as a RHSA as well as in the other 
languages! It also seems like you're coming in with some experience with 
a previous year of GSoC, so it seems like you're a little more familiar 
with how to navigate the ropes.

Yes, the end-of-life notifications ARE listed as a GSoC project. Whether 
or not we get a slot for it will depend on a couple of things:

1) The number of mentors allocated to the project idea.
2) The number and strength of applicants we have applying for a slot.
3) The number of slots we are awarded by Google.

The best way to ensure that we DO get a slot for it is to follow the 
procedure described at the bottom of the GSoC organization page.

     https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/5630777857409024/

You've already introduced yourself to the mailing list now, so that's 
one item off your checklist. Next, you can begin frequenting the various 
IRC channels (#fedora-summer-coding, #fedora-apps, and #cockpit, etc.), 
and then work with mentors to figure out your next steps. Additionally, 
there is a post on the Fedora Community Blog that should help answer 
many of your questions about what to do next.

 
https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/fedora-accepted-google-summer-of-...

Finally, if you didn't see Remy's earlier post on the mailing list, he 
gave some more specific instructions about GSoC 2016, what to expect, 
and some great advice for moving forward. Please give it a read if you 
have not already!

We look forward to getting to know you!
