Hi all

as Google has started to accept organization applications, I've updated our page on wiki to match this year's questions:

https://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2013_Mentoring_Organization_Application

I've used past applications and answered some new questions, but help is definitely welcome :-).

I merged a duplicate question on the wiki ('what do you hope to gain from participating in GSoC 2013').

I updated the answer to the question about how we encourage students to interact with your project's community before and during the program. Please review.

I think the question on how we encourage students to stick with the project, needs some more details. Some examples should be added why it is a great experience and how we show this. We could mention that we offer commit access/team membership if they do well in GSoC.

I suggest adding in http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Category:Google_Summer_of_Code_2013

a page "GSoC 2013 What happens after the summer" or something similar. This page would mention

- that our goal is to gain new permanent contributors - about commit access - about team membership - about team meetings with expenses paid, for active members

Then we could link to this page from - the Applicant Guide - the Student guide - the Mentoring Organization Application (in question 16).

...

PS: Dieter, I need your username there (shown as link_id once you login to the GSoC site).

I added it to the wiki. I also registered on the melange site.

Or "GSoC 2013 After the Summer"

...

This page would mention

• that our goal is to gain new permanent contributors
• about commit access
• about team membership
• about team meetings with expenses paid, for active members

Then we could link to this page from

• the Applicant Guide
• the Student guide
• the Mentoring Organization Application (in question 16).

I am volunteer to write the first draft.

I also suggest to add testimonials from team members (veterans and newcomers) on this page, about why they joined and why they enjoy being part of the team.

Feedback please ?

I like the idea of adding a 'After GSoC' page, no comments on the proposed contents.

I also agree with this.

For the testimonials we can ask the active team members that were GSoC students (like Rouslan, Madhura, Chanaka, Atul, ...), to add something to this page.

I think they are most eligible to add something there :-).

I have created a 'first draft' for this page : http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2013_After_the_Summer Comments and improvements are welcome.
