A Note About Our Process

The determination of appropriate projects is a collaborative effort between those community members (preferably developers) and students (preferably computer science students or adepts). We highly recommend that prospective students join in to the IRC channel and list-servs and discuss ideas for project with the community prior to submitting a proposal. the order of your proposal submission is irrelevant in the decision making process for selection. What is more important is that the mentors for you project have a strong interest in supporting it during the evaluation process.

Review the existing project ideas or create your own and place your student proposal at the GSoC 2009 Site: http://socghop.appspot.com^{Image Removed}

A word of warning, in past years, bulk applications have been immediately rejected as "insincere".
