Guidelines

The goal of Code-in is to get students interested and involved in open source, not to get free child labour. ;) The tasks should reflect that. Try and form your tasks around ideas that are fun, interesting, of high importance for the project, and/or would look great on a college application.

Application is our main focus at the moment and that's why we need people that are willing to help with that. Code-in is focused on pre-university students, which are definitely future of our community. If you have few hours to contribute and you want to help attracting young people to join our community, please contact me or leave a comment.

Google Code-in 2011

Posted by slashrsm on October 16, 2011 at 8:43pm

Google code-in 2001 was announced. Will Drupal apply also this year?

What is the procedure? Should we first prepare application or start collecting proposals first? I'm willing to help with this, since I was GSoC 2011 student and I'l like to help younger open source enthusiasts to involve in Drupal.
