What did "Chris/Cornelius/Me" do at that time to publicize the existence of a "something for mentoring" effort?
The first time on this list Chris mentioned 101 in his call's for GSoC projects somewhat early February.
So, at least two months passed before further publicity was given to "101", which I take it is shorthand for http://101.openSUSE.org
Yes, so? :-)
We are going to make more noise about it if we get accepted to GSoC which will be the first time we seriously use this 'program'.
If we are accepted to the Google Summer of Code, wouldn't it be nice to have some idea of who will be mentoring our offering to GSoC and who the mentee might be?
Projects and mentors are already selected http://101.opensuse.org/gsoc/#projects There are also some students already who have shown interest and are working on the introduction tasks...
That is, shouldn't the planning for our GSoC effort take the time currently available to move forward in optimistic anticipation so we can take full advantage of the short, unyielding schedule of the passing of Summer?
GSoC won't happen if we are not selected as mentoring organization. Selection by Google happens next Monday 29 February 19:00 UTC. Once this we have taken this hurdle we (and the GSoC team in general) will actively seek for students for the projects.
Is it possible for the mentoring repository to be used for other efforts to grow the number of participants in the openSUSE project?
Yes we have specifically designed this so we can run other outreach programs through it. But first things first: GSoC :-) Henne -- Henne Vogelsang http://www.opensuse.org Everybody has a plan, until they get hit. - Mike Tyson -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
