Fwd: [gci-announce] Google Code-in 2014 is on!

[Joel Sherrill]

Hi

It is now official. Google Code-in will occur this year.

I asked earlier about folks mentoring and now we know for sure that we need
mentors lined up before we commit.

Please let me know privately if you have questions or want to mentor.  This
is really a nice opportunity to encourage the next generation of hackers.

Hi open source enthusiasts,

We’re excited to announce that the fifth edition of the Google Code-in 2014
contest [0] will start December 1st for students and run until January
19th, 2015 [1]. Teenagers from around the world will have the opportunity
to work with real open source software projects by working on tasks
including coding, documentation, outreach, training and user interface
tasks. Over the past four years we have had 1575 students from 78 countries
work on tasks for over 30 open source projects.

We’re looking forward to another fun and exciting contest this year and
hope you’ll participate yourself if you are eligible and also spread the
word to friends, family, and colleagues about the program. Please check out
the timeline [1] for more important dates.

Please see our blog post [2], FAQs [3], and the contest site [4] for
contest rules and other details on the contest. You can also sign up for
the contest discussion list [5]. Our program website [6] has slide decks,
logos, a getting started guide and other information that can help you plan
for this year's contest too.

You can register as a student once the contest begins on Monday, December
1st at 17:00 UTC.


If you are part of an open source organization that would like to apply to
be a mentoring organization for this year's contest the applications open
for organizations on Monday, October 27th and end on Monday, November 10th.


Help us spread the word to the teens in your life.
