[Plone-developers] Google Announces Summer of Code 2006

[Jon S. <jo...@on...>]

I just noticed that Google announced their 2006 "Summer of Code" internship
program at http://code.google.com/soc/.  Last year they sponsored 419 students
with $4500 to work on open source software products.

According to the FAQ if Plone is interested in being a "Mentor" organization,
we'd need to:

...email the SoC program administrators at soc...@go... to advise
Google of your interest. We will notify you of acceptance or rejection as soon
as possible. Please ensure that your organization meets all eligibility
requirements outlined in this FAQ and our Terms of Service before applying.


I'm not sure who, if anyone, could organize this for the Plone community, but it
seems like a great opportunity to get some work funded.  I notice that PythonSF
is already registered as a mentoring organzation.

best,
jon
