Google Summer of Code

This year we're participating in Google Summer of Code (#GSoC) under DIAL -- GSoC recruits students minorities to work on open source projects.

We've done GSoC for a few years now. Gsoc explains:

Google Summer of Code is a global program focused on bringing more student developers into open source software development. Students work with an open source organization on a 3 month programming project during their break from school.

So, we're asking students to start posting their proposals for comment, here. Read on!

Deadline:

GSoC applications will be close on March 31, 2020.
