As far as I know prospective applicants for Outreachy should file their initial application well before the projects are announced. Also, I believe we have four proposals two of them in great shape from the previous round: 1. Guix Data Service internationalization support 2. netlink wrapper in guile, and a better static networking service for guix There were also two ideas: 1. Exporting metrics from cuirass and the guix daemon for monitoring, and for possible use by the data service. 2. Guix installer accessibility improvements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GSoC According to the GSoC timeline: Mentoring organizations begin on Jan. 14. 19:00 UTC. And the mentoring organization application deadline is: Feb. 5. 19:00 UTC. https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline As earlier, Guix intends to participate under the GNU umbrella. We have this GSoC ideas page: https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:Guix/GSoC-2019 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Could someone help me clarify what project ideas are still alive and have a prospective mentor? Also is there any other idea we should take into consideration? Or should we move any of the proposals between the internships?
