Thank you for your interest in the Gentoo GSOC. You need to learn |
| 14 |
your way through Gentoo packaging. I suggest you to use Gentoo |
| 15 |
developer manual[1] as a reference documentations, its first |
| 16 |
chapter[2] is useful as a quick start guide. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Your proposal should contain detailed per-week plan of your work |
| 19 |
during summer, occasionally grouping plan per a couple of weeks is |
| 20 |
ok, but students with thoughtful and detailed plan usually have |
| 21 |
better chances. As a start you may pick up topics and packages |
| 22 |
mentioned at the project wiki page[3,4]. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
We recommend to prove your skills by fixing some of our bugs, pick |
| 25 |
any scientific-related bug[5] and provide us solution via either |
| 26 |
e-mail patches, bugzilla or github pull requests. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Subscription to gentoo-soc ML is recommended for further communication. |
