Google Summer of Code 2008 is on! Over the past three years, the program has brought together over 1500 students and 2000 mentors from 90 countries worldwide, all for the love of code. We look forward to welcoming more new contributors and projects this year.
All participating mentoring organizations for 2008 have provided additional information for their would-be students, including a list of sample project ideas. Take a look and see which ones most closely match your skills and interests, then start talking to your would-be mentors! We'll begin accepting student applications on Monday, March 24, 2008, so you have a full week to get to know more about what your would-be mentors are looking for and to hone your proposal ideas. Remember, the more a mentoring organization knows about you, and you about their code base and community, the more likely it is that your application will be attractive to your potential mentors.
