digitalmars.D.announce - GSoC Deadline Friday

reply Craig Dillabaugh <craig.dillabaugh gmail.com> writes:
The Google Summer of Code deadline is this Friday.

I would like confirmation from the following individuals if they 
can mentor GSOC this summer.

Iain Buclaw
Bruno Medeiros
Martin Nowak (and as backup Admin)
Jacob Ovrum

And as backup mentors
   Adam D. Ruppe
   Dmitry Olshansky

I know for some of you (Iain) the offer to mentor was a 'standing 
offer' of sorts, but it would still be good to get confirmation.  
Also the poster 'Dragos Carp' volunteered as a possible mentor 
for the Protocol Buffers/Flatbuffers work ... so could you please 
add a short bio to the mentor's page (or post something here):

http://wiki.dlang.org/GSOC_mentors

We have a decent number of ideas, but the page could use some 
work.

http://wiki.dlang.org/GSOC_2016_Ideas

In particular if you can add info to the 'Its Good To Know' 
sections (such as links to DConf videos), or flesh out some 
existing ideas that help is welcome.  I will continue to try and 
improve that page.

You may want to scrape the email addresses of these folks and send them email directly. -- Andrei

Hey Andrei, what is the status of the D Foundation? Martin suggested that we apply as the D Foundation, rather than Digital Mars but I wasn't 100% sure if the D Foundation was officially up and running yet. If so does it have a website?

The foundation is incorporated. Please email me for the details you need. Thanks! -- Andrei

My time has been extremely limited lately... if it is anything more than answering some quick emails/irc chats every so often that can wait a few hours for me to get back to them, I probably won't be able to keep up :(

If its OK then I will keep you on the 'backup' mentors list and we will avoid pushing any work to you, but may ask for help on small issues if need be.

Nope, I won't be available to mentor GSoC this year I'm afraid. -- Bruno Medeiros https://twitter.com/brunodomedeiros
