Google Code-in will come to an end in a few days. I would like to take the opportunity to ask feedback from people. We can discuss it from here. Personally for me, the questions that I had like to ask are this 1. How do you think Google Code-in helped us? 2. Where are the areas we can try to improve and how can we improve?
The translations, both into Greek and Turkish, were very successful. Perhaps next year translation should be a particular focus. Also, I think next year we should figure out a way to make sure that finished tasks are reviewed within 48 hours - there were cases where a task was waiting for review for several days because the mentor was not available, and that's not fair to the student. All in all, though, I think it was a good experience - many thanks to the mentors, all of whom really did a great job :-) -- Matt Barringer, Software Engineer SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, DE GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)
