[[User:Mchua|Mchua]] is the current project coordinator and can be contacted with any questions. − − == What makes a good project == − − Our focus is on '''collaboration''' and '''community''' for the summer 2009 round of projects, though we'll also consider thoughtful proposals that lie outside these two areas and can make a strong case for how they would support the Sugar Labs [[Sugar_Labs|mission]]. − − === Collaboration === − − This refers to API or activity work that makes [[collaboration]] "work better." A good metric for "works better" is to ask the following: "6 months after the summer ends, which projects are likely to have caused the highest increase in children-hours spent collaborating over Sugar Activities?" − − === Community === − − This refers to meta-work that makes it easy for Sugar to reach a broader [[community]]; this includes development tools (and accompanying implementation of processes and training), internationalization/localization, accessibility, infrastructure-building, and porting Sugar to other platforms. − − A good metric for "reaches a broader community" is to ask the following: "6 months after the summer ends, which projects are likely to cause the highest increase in SL community members that have participated consistently on a team for a minimum of 3 months?" − − == Get involved == − − === Mentors === − − The preliminary [[/Mentors]]' application page is now up. − − === Students === − − Student applications open on March 23rd. In the meantime, look at the list of [[Development Team/Project Ideas | project ideas]] or propose your own. Bring your proposals to the community, developers, and potential mentors for feedback on [[Sugar_Labs/Contacts | the mailing list]] or [[IRC]]. − − === Supporters === − − We're currently in the "get ideas" phase; please see [[Development Team/Project Ideas]] for a list of potential projects, and add your own. (There are some [[Marketing Team/Events/Sugarcamp_Boston_2008/Minutes#Items_from_the_roadmap_brainstorm|more project ideas]] from a brainstorming session at Sugar Camp that should be ported over; let [[User:Mchua|Mchua]] know if you'd like to help with this.) − − We would welcome help coordinating the overall effort as well; please contact [[User:Mchua|Mchua]] if you'd like to get involved with this. We are currently working on the [[/SL application]] to Google. − − == Community-building ideas == − − The mentoring org application includes the following questions: − − # What steps will you take to encourage students to interact with your project's community before, during and after the program? − # What will you do to ensure that your accepted students stick with the project after GSoC concludes? − − This is a place for brainstorming these issues. − − [11:59] <mchua> homunq: we also need a general plan for how we're going to use this as a good community building tool for new developers, though that's a little vague − [11:59] <mchua> homunq: stuff like "would a weekly check-in email be a good idea?" "do we require mentor meetings on IRC?" "are students mandated to blog about their work?" − − <noinclude> − − ==Subpages== − {{Special:PrefixIndex/{{PAGENAME}}}} − </noinclude> − − [[Category:Participate]] − [[Category:Project]] − [[Category:GSoC]]
