Google Summer of Code/2013

PRE-PLANNING - Nothing about GSOC 2013 is confirmed at this point

Google Summer of Code is one of the mentorship programs we are planning to organize in 2013. Let's start collecting ideas and recruiting participants.

Our plans need to take into consideration the lessons learned in 2012.

Mentors
Introduce yourself and your interests in one sentence. Your signature and updated user page are assumed. :)


 * I'm offering to mentor Wikimedia Commons related projects. I'm also available for a more generic project for a student who comes from another language and would like to learn PHP / improve PHP skills. --Dereckson (talk) 21:46, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Admins
Ideally three, to cover each other and have less work per head.


 * Quim Gil will be there but welcoming help. I can do the boring part dealing with Google and the submission process, but I'm happy delegating as much as possible during program.--Qgil (talk) 18:42, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Placeholder for an admin. Take it!

Project ideas
The best ideas are the ones that come together with a student or a mentor. Still, you can suggest ideas even if there is nobody backing them right now (and you might want to consider stepping in?).

You can bring ideas from Mentorship programs/Possible projects or post new ones here. Please sign your suggestions so it is clear where do they come from.


 * Your idea here.
