[GSoC] Coding period starts tomorrow!

[Joseph P. De Veaugh-Geiss]

Hi,

we hope your bonding period has been going well and you have discussed 
with mentors about what you will be doing over the next several weeks.

If there are any open issues, discuss them with your mentors asap!

Some of you may not have set up a blog to write about your journey [1]. 
It is *very* important to do so right away in order to spread the word 
about what you are doing, the issues you are facing, the progress you 
make, and the solutions you find.

Now that the coding period is starting, note that it is important to 
keep up the discussion with your mentors. Scheduling a regular meeting 
time, if possible, is recommended. All mentors are here to help you and 
give you advice, and there is no need to be shy.

For your code: "Release early, release often" [2]. This is the best way 
for you to get feedback on what you develop, the code quality, the 
algorithm, and the content.

Have an excellent summer, everyone!
