OSAF to participate in Google’s Summer of Code 2006

May 3rd, 2006 at 3:16 pm (2 years, 3 months ago) by OSAF under Chandler Desktop Development, OSAF

Students, if you want to work on an OSAF mentored project, and get paid for your efforts by Google — submit your application here.

The Summer of Code is a program in which Google provides student developers with a $4,500 stipend to create new open source programs or to help currently established projects. Google will be working with a variety of open source, free software and technology related groups to identify and fund up to several hundred projects over a 3 month time span. The inaugural instance of the program, which took place during the summer of 2005, brought together 400 students and 40 mentor organizations from 49 countries.

The program’s goals are to inspire young developers and provide students in Computer Science and related fields the opportunity to do work related to their academic pursuits during the summer, and to support existing open source projects and organizations.

For more information about this program, see the Google Summer of Code 2006 web page.
