Hi everyone, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I've been following your projects all summer, and overall I'm really |
| 4 |
happy with how well things have gone. You've run into problems and |
| 5 |
figured out how to overcome them and succeed anyway. GSoC ends Monday, |
| 6 |
so I just wanted to send out a quick note about a couple of final |
| 7 |
details: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
What should you submit as your final deliverable? |
| 10 |
------------------------------------------------- |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
What I'm looking for is code that runs with enough documentation that I |
| 13 |
can easily install and run it by myself (in other words, a *product* |
| 14 |
rather than a *project*). If your project is standalone, I'd love to see |
| 15 |
you release a 0.1 tarball too, and announce it on the gentoo-dev list so |
| 16 |
everyone knows how things went. Your project should have a homepage or |
| 17 |
be part of a larger project with a homepage, somewhere on gentoo.org |
| 18 |
(for now, soc.dev.gentoo.org/~your_username is acceptable). |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
You should also send a final wrap-up report to the gentoo-soc list. |
| 21 |
Summarize your project, anything major that you had to change from your |
| 22 |
initial plan, and how you envision the future of your project. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
What next? |

We hope you had a great summer, and we would love you to stick around |
| 29 |
and keep working on your projects. The other 250 of us volunteer to work |
| 30 |
on Gentoo, and it's only a matter of a few hours a week rather than the |
| 31 |
full-time efforts you've been putting in. If you're interested (and we |
| 32 |
hope you are!), please talk to your mentor and to me, and we'll get |
| 33 |
things started. |
