GSoC 2011
User:Zhenya; his proposal is to enhance Extension:SocialProfile by writing a new feature, UserStatus, that would allow users to provide Twitter/Facebook-like short status updates on their social profiles.
Please sign up as a mentor via the formal system this week, so that you can look at the proposals and give students suggestions for improvement before the Friday deadline!
1) Go to http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/google/gsoc2011/wikimedia
2) Under the photo of happy smiling people, click "Or register as a mentor".
3) You'll need a Google account to sign in (sorry). Sign in with that.
4) Fill out the form, which Brandon Harris calls the WORST form EVER. Sorry. Choose a "Link ID" (basically a username that you can't change later).
After you submit that, I'll see it and approve you as a mentor. And then you'll be able to comment, privately or publicly, on students' proposals, and I'll let you know when it's time to start evaluating them.
