GSoC next steps

Hi folks. We received several mails asking questions for the next step. So I think it is a good idea to clarify it a bit.

Mentors and students, will have to register in Google GSoC website, but first we want them to be registered in our ESUG GSoC website. Why? Several reasons:

1. We are trying to approach this year GSoC on a more organized way,
2. that's why we are building that special Smalltalk GSoc website,
3. to support you, the students and the projects as best as possible.

We are developing this registration in our website and it was almost finish. We will call for mentors first.

We created a mailing list for all the mentors. If you are mentor, you should be there. If you are not, please contact us.

We had already sent an email to mentors mailing list to invite them to register as mentors in our ESUG GSoC website. If we discover bugs during that period, they will be fixed. Once after all mentors have been successfully registered and the registration process is working correctly, then we will invite students to register also.

After that, students and mentors will be registered in our website, each of them will have each other's contact information, each will have their own page for the project, etc.

Once all of this is done, then mentors and students will register in the Google GSoC webpage. Finally, mentors will vote and choose the projects to be selected. Even more, if there is more than one student for the same project, the mentor will have to choose.

Cheers

Where can I find this mailing list so I can add it to the other mailing lists on Nabble if you like?

I am not sure but I think it is a private mailing list where mentors will be able to discuss and vote.
Anyway, I will ask Janko just in case I am wrong.

Thanks

Mariano

Why a private discussion and/or voting? Isn't the whole point of GSoC to engage the entire Smalltalk community?

Smalltalk GSoC Mentors mailing list is actually visible to others, just
that it is created in Slovenian and now I can't change the language. If
someone knows how... Here is the link:

http://groups.google.si/group/smalltalk-gsoc-mentors

Also, I think this list should stay semi-public and it is not for
inclusion on the Nabble. Just for interesting public therefore :) This
will then be a right balance between privacy of mentors and public
interest of community, IMO.

Best regards
Janko

Just use .com instead of .si to see the group in English :) http://groups.google.com/group/smalltalk-gsoc-mentors

Re: GSoC next steps

Hola Mariano!

I see that despite student applications are not open yet, there are some few students registered in the site, saying the projects they are interested in. Does this matter? Is it ok if we register to the site as Students though the student applications are not officialy open?

Thanks,
Carla

Re: GSoC next steps

No. Just wait. Those students send us emails (in private) and we put them there so that not to loose them between hundred of emails. Please wait. They won't have any advantage among others.

Cheers
