The "SummerOfCode2011" page has been changed by simonwillnauer. http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/SummerOfCode2011?action=3Ddiff&rev1=3D9&= rev2=3D10 -------------------------------------------------- =3D Lucene Google Summer of Code 2011 =3D - This page is for Lucene internal infos related to Google Summer of Code 2= 011 + = + =3D=3D Students READ THIS! =3D=3D + = + Google Summer of Code 2011 is very close and the Project Applications + Period has started recently. Now it's time to get some excited students + on board for this year's GSoC. + = + We encourage students to submit an application to the Google Summer of Co= de + web-application. Lucene & Solr are amazing projects and GSoC is an + incredible opportunity to join the community and push the project + forward. + = + If you are a student and you are interested spending some time on a + great open source project while getting paid for it, you should submit + your application from March 28 - April 8, 2011. There are only 3 + weeks until this process starts! + = + Quote from the GSoC website: "We hear almost universally from our + mentoring organizations that the best applications they receive are + from students who took the time to interact and discuss their ideas + before submitting an application, so make sure to check out each + organization's Ideas list to get to know a particular open source + organization better." + = + So if you have any ideas what Lucene & Solr should have, or if you + find any of the GSoC [[https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigat= or.jspa?reset=3Dtrue&jqlQuery=3Dlabels+%3D+lucene-gsoc-11|pre-selected proj= ects]] interesting, please + join us on dev@lucene.apache.org ([[http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/ma= ilinglists.html|mailinglists]]). Since you as a student must + apply for a certain project via the [[http://www.google-melange.com|GSoC = website]] , it's a good idea + to work on it ahead of time and include the community and possible + mentors as soon as possible. + = + Open source development here at the Apache Software + Foundation happens almost exclusively in the public and I encourage you to + follow this. Don't mail folks privately; please use the mailing list to + get the best possible visibility and attract interested community + members and push your idea forward. As always, it's the idea that + counts not the person! + = + That said, please do not underestimate the complexity of even small + "GSoC - Projects". Don't try to rewrite Lucene or Solr! A project + usually gains more from a smaller, well discussed and carefully + crafted & tested feature than from a half baked monster change that's + too large to work with. + = + Once your proposal has been accepted and you begin work, you should + give the community the opportunity to iterate with you. We prefer + "progress over perfection" so don't hesitate to describe your overall + vision, but when the rubber meets the road let's take it in small + steps. A code patch of 20 KB is likely to be reviewed very quickly so + get fast feedback, while a patch even 60kb in size can take very + long. So try to break up your vision and the community will work with + you to get things done! + = + Go! join the mailing list and apply for GSoC 2011 = =3D=3D Project Ideas =3D=3D + = + New project ideas should be discussed on the mailinglist dev@lucene.apach= e.org and the outcome should be reflected as JIRA tickets marktd witl '''gs= oc2011''' and '''lucene-gsoc-11''' labels.
