summer of code

Drupal has officially been accepted into Google's Summer of Code 2016. Learn more about GSoC and all of the accepted organizations at https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/

We're still looking for mentors and project ideas to help students who will now write proposals for Drupal. All students start with docs @ https://www.drupal.org/node/2415225

Join us in #drupal-google on Freenode to chat in real time.

More information about Drupal's initiatives for GSoC 2016 will be posted in this group soon...

Congratulations to Google Code-In Winners

Google Summer of Code 2014 has triumphantly concluded for Drupal as a participating organization. We selected thirteen students (https://groups.drupal.org/node/423558) out of fifty project proposals from around the world and twelve of the projects passed with success. Help us by reviewing each project's code (https://groups.drupal.org/node/442493).

GSoC 2014 is ending and it is time to start planning for GSoC 2015. What have we learned in 2014 that we can improve on in 2015? It is never too early to start planning, so please, feel to free to add any thoughts/ideas/feedback here. Even if you're interested in being a mentor or student next summer, feel free to join this group and ping us here.

I'm making a last minute entry into Google Summer of Code, and I need two mentors to sign on! So, I'm putting my proposal out there, and if any mentors are interested, please (please (please!)) let me know. You can reach me chart058@newschool.edu. Thanks!

The proposal:

Reminder to all students AND mentors that GSoC 2014 student applications are due this Friday March 21st at 19:00-UTC. Moving forward all students need to be submitting applications directly into Melange for review. Students need practice submitting proposals into Melange to realize it can be a pain and understand Google will NOT accept ANY late proposals.

Our awesome community recently became a bit more awesome. Drupal was accepted into Google's Summer of Code 2014! Student applications started March 10th and are open until March 21st. It's not too late to become a student, mentor, or submit a project idea. Not available to join the GSoC fun...maybe you can send an email to your alumni university mailing list?

Over the past few months we organized an initiative with Google Code-In students to learn, edit, and create ladders. During this time I truly learned the value of the ladder program and how quickly it can help new users learn Drupal with proper documentation. In fact, we plan for GCI students to work on the DrupalLadder every year which will greatly help the project grow in terms of content. Code-In is for high school students taking on basic tasks.

Are any of the IdeaScale ideas still relevant @ http://drupal-association.ideascale.com/ ? Some of these ideas will work out perfectly for a Google Summer of Code project and the ideas are already nicely documented.

Anyone interested in being a mentor or know a friend that might? Maybe you have another project in mind? Please add ideas into the 2014 GSoC Drupal Idea Wiki (https://groups.drupal.org/node/404778). We hope to finish reviewing GSoC ideas by this Wednesday night Feb 12th at midnight UTC-6.

Hello,

I'm a GSoC student working on Drupal working on .. I'm heading into my last year of my computer science bachelor (University of Antwerp), which means I'll have to do a bachelor thesis and I was thinking of doing it on Drupal. So I'm looking for a project. I don't really know what I want to do, but I was thinking somewhere in the direction of Drupal 8 core or the Prairie initiative however I'll take all the ideas I can get.

So there you go, I'm looking for a project that would qualify the following (loosely translated from dutch):
