OBF is going to apply to be a mentoring organization for Google
Summer of
<br>
Code 2015. To make the ideas list more digestible for Google's
reviewers,
<br>
we consolidated all of the Bio* projects' ideas into a single page
on the
<br>
OBF wiki:
<br>
<a href="http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2015_Ideas" target="_blank">http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2015_Ideas</a>
<br>
<br>
Me (Raoul J.P. Bonnal) and Francesco Strozzi are the OrgAdmin,
thanks to the OBF Board.<br>
<br>
We encourage each mentor of an affiliated sub-project to fill in/add
project
<br>
to the above page. Please report directly to me(<a href="mailto:bonnal@ingm.org" target="_blank">bonnal@ingm.org</a>)
your availability as a mentor
<br>
for this year. Student from past years can mentor and propose an
idea, if supported by
<br>
their community.
<br>
<br>

Last year we introduced the Cross Projects, i.e.
<br>
those involving two or more programming languages or Bio* project
<br>
communities and/or can be useful to many languages
<br>
( web APIs reusable from any language ). The first 2015 cross
project
<br>
is <a href="http://www.nextflow.io/" target="_blank">http://www.nextflow.io/</a>
and you can find the proposal here:
<br>
<a href="http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2015_Ideas#Cross-project_ideas" target="_blank">http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_2015_Ideas#Cross-project_ideas</a>
<br>
<br>
<br>
This page is the one we listed in our application. It is separate
from the
<br>
OBF wiki page for general GSoC information:
<br>
<a href="http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code" target="_blank">http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code</a>
<br>
<br>
If OBF is accepted for GSoC 2015, it would make sense to point each
Bio*
<br>
project's GSoC wiki page to this one, instead of duplicating the
content.
<br>
<br>
As another way to interact with potential students, we've created a
Google
<br>
Plus page for OBF:
<br>
<a href="https://plus.google.com/115564754756543103019/posts" target="_blank">https://plus.google.com/115564754756543103019/posts</a>
<br>
<br>
And a G+ community for OBF's GSoC activities:
<br>
<a href="https://plus.google.com/communities/103096212020630764091" target="_blank">https://plus.google.com/communities/103096212020630764091</a>
<br>
<br>
Feel free to forward this message to your colleagues or other
possible orgs that want to join us.<br>
<br>
Thanks to Eric Talevich, the GSoC 2014 main OrgAdmin, he did a great
work and provide a lot of docs and useful hints.<br>
<br>
Best regards,
<br>
Raoul & Francesco
