Description Michal Slonina 2005-06-01 05:40:36 UTC

Summer of Code is a programe in witch developers choose projects, and if they
are accepted by mentors, they get paid by google after project acceptance.

We could attract developers to gentoo by coopereting with googles "Summer of Code"
program. There is nothing to loose, and we could win potential developers, or
even have some real problems solved by fully paid staff.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
go to: http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html

Actual Results:  
no Gentoo on the list of mentors

Expected Results:  
Gentoo represented on the list of mentoring organizations

I posted the bug as critical, becouse there is not much time left to get involved.
I hope no one will get angry at me for this :)
