[Hamara-devel] Fwd: Fwd: Debian welcomes its Google Summer of Code students

[shirish]

Hi all,
Forwarding the GSOC mail for Debian. Interestingly, around half the 
students this time around are chosen from India.

They could be thought of as future interns/employees if need be as after 
6 months they would have considerable debian-related experience which 
means less of downtime to get on speed with things.

Hi all!

The newfangled Debian Outreach Team is proud to welcome the 17 students
selected to be part of the Google Summer of Code this year. We're 
delighted that two of those 17 students were Outreachy applicants, and 
have been accepted to GSoC through that program.

We have a wide range of selected projects this year, from improving QA 
tools, adding new packaging helpers, all the way to creating a  Debian 
bootable OS using another compiler. You'll find below the full list of 
projects, students, their work plan, and their mentors.
