[20061005] Google "Summer of Code" 2006 Mentor Summit
The reference to the "party" in my last GSoC-related posting was not really a joke: There will be a Google "Summer of Code" 2006 Mentor Summit at the Google headquarter in Mountain View, CA on October 14th. Each mentoring organisation gets to send two of their admins/mentors, and today I got my hotel and flight ticket confirmed, finally.

The agenda's still building up, but my personal point of interest is how much "research" to have in the actual project proposals - I'm under the impression that the NetBSD project proposals could/should be a lot clearer, and leave less decisions or open questions to the student working on a project. Of course it means a lot more work and to at least halfways think through a project before proposing it, but at the end it will mean a clearer defined goal for the student towards which to work. Depending on the actual project, of course.
