Welcome to GSoC 2008! 22 April 08, Tuesday @ 14:18

The Pardus Project is pleased to announce that Google has agreed to sponsor five student slots .

Congratulations, and welcome to the Pardus community! We are looking forward to the successful completion of the following interesting projects:

• A System Restore Project for Pardus
  by Mehmet Ozan Kabak, mentored by Gökmen GÖKSEL
• Pardus CD/DVD/USB Distribution Wizard
  by Türker Sezer, mentored by S.Çağlar Onur
• Internet Connection Share Module
  by Cihangir Beşiktaş, mentored by Pınar Yanardağ
• 802.1x support for network manager
  by İşbaran Akçayır, mentored by Gökçen Eraslan
• PISI - Package Signing Mechanism
  by Serdar DALGIC, mentored by Faik Yalçın Uygur

Student projects will be worked on roughly full time (~40 hours/week) between May 26th and August 18th.

Right now you should spend some time talking to your mentor(s), so you can both get to know each other better. Here's a rough idea of some of the things you should be trying to work on with your mentor over the next several weeks:

• Get a copy of your related projects source code and become familiar enough with it that you can make changes and commit them.
• Start dicussing with your mentor your timeline and goals.
• Discuss your personal schedule(s) with your mentor(s)/student(s).
• Subscribe to gsoc and pardus-devel mailing lists and introduce yourself.
• Read Pardus Developer Guide and apply for a SVN account.

We realize you are still taking classes, and have project deadlines, homework and exams to still worry about. But now that you are accepted into GSoC its also time to start setting aside a few hours a week to plan out your summer, so you can make the most of this opportunity.

We are excited to have you join us, and are really looking forward to these projects!
