Code samples

[Leo Franchi]

Hi everyone,

(if you already have submitted your code, and I see a few students are  
on top of the ball, just ignore this email)

The last step of the 2009 GSoC is here. All the students need to  
provide code samples to Google. The code samples have to be  
representative of what you have worked on during the summer. They do  
*not* need to self-contained compilable working pieces of code. Google  
is not evaluating the code to see if it does what you say---they need  
a physical product that you have produced, however.

So something like "svn diff > file" is completely fine. Even if some  
stray code that you didn't write gets in there, that's OK too.

Here's what you gotta do:
1) Get the code sample.
2) Tar the file up. The file must be called givenname_surnames.tar. 
{gz,bz2}
3) go to http://code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code-2009-kde/downloads/list 
  , and click "New Download"
4) Enter your project title in the Summary field
5) Click on Browse, choose the file, and press Upload.

That's it!

If you want to get a t-shirt in the first round of deliveries, you  
must submit your code sample by Monday, Sept. 14 1900 UTC.

If you have any questions, the full official instructions are here: http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-announce/web/how-to-provide-google-with-sample-code

cheers,
