[GSoC Mentors] GSoC 2023 open for org applications January 23 - February 7

[Johnny Jazeix]

Hi,

org applications start tomorrow and there is no idea at all in the page (
https://community.kde.org/GSoC/2023/Ideas). Are we interested to
participate to GSoC this year?

Cheers,

Johnny

> Applications are open from January 23 - Feb 7, 2023.

> In 2022 we implemented our biggest changes to the program in its 18 year
> history and had an overwhelmingly positive response to the changes
> (extended timelines, medium and large size projects and opening eligibility
> beyond students) so we are keeping the changes as we go into 2023 with a
> couple of minor tweaks.
>
>    1.
>
>    Per the conversation on the mentor list this summer, we are expanding
>    the eligibility to include students and beginners to open source
>    development. There was some confusion about students who might have
>    some experience in open source so we have fixed that with this new
>    eligibility rule.
>    2.
>
>    The other change is that we are back to allowing a person to be
>    accepted as a GSoC Contributor up to 2 times (regardless of when their
>    first GSoC acceptance was). This assumes they could still be considered a
>    beginner - ie. they didn’t participate as a GSoC student in 2015 and have
>    been actively involved in open source development since then and want to
>    come back 8 years later to be a GSoC Contributor.
>    3.
>
>    We have shifted the timeline to start a couple of weeks earlier, so
>    that the program wraps up for the standard 12 week projects by early
>    September which is generally what the schedule looked like for many of the
>    past 18 years.

> and the new, more colorful and exciting GSoC 2023 slides
> <https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/resources/downloads/GSoC2023Presentation.pdf>

> *Have a group you think GSoC Program Admins should reach out to?*
>
> Diversity in open source communities is vital to the health of our
> communities. Please spread the word about GSoC to communities in your
> country or in your network particularly those that reach underrepresented
> groups in open source. If you have a suggestion for a group you think the
> GSoC team should add to our list of contacts that we send out emails to
> about the program early in the new year, or if you have a group that you
> think would be a good opportunity for GSoC Administrators to give a talk
> about GSoC please email us at gsoc-support at google.com with their details
> (email and contact person if you have one available).

> *See you at FOSDEM!*
>
> As Chris mentioned in the GSoC 22 Mentor Summit a couple of weeks ago, our
> team is very excited to attend FOSDEM in Brussels in 2023. We will send
> more details in January but we are in the early stages of planning a GSoC
> Meetup for Saturday night during FOSDEM as we have done in previous years.
> Looking forward to seeing many of you in Brussels in February!

>
> *GSoC Videos*
>
> We have been busy working with our mentors and GSoC contributors to create
> new GSoC videos as they are a popular medium for new folks to learn about
> GSoC.
>
> A HUGE thank you to our mentors that helped with the new ‘Introduction to
> Google Summer of Code’ video <https://youtu.be/7jD2tChhrWM> (Adrian,
> Benjamin, Ann, Rāzvan,  Meenakshi, Srishti and Gabriel). And thanks to our
> mentors and org admins that created 25 GSoC Org videos
> <https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxNYxgaZ8RscKC8NFOyQK2YdMCrM9Gb5A>
> helping interested participants understand more about the many types of
> projects available in GSoC. And finally a huge thank you to the mentors and
> org admins that have volunteered to be a part of our Community Talk
> <https://youtu.be/va_ODtap-pk> series - the 2nd one is November 15th.
>
>
> *GSoC 2022 Wrap Up Coming in December*
>
> In early December, after the 2022 program has officially ended, we will
> send out notes and themes we have collected from all of the mentor and GSoC
> contributor evaluations for 2022 to this list.
>
> Thank you all for GSoC 2022, we look forward to our 19th year in 2023!
