The main page is at SummerOfCode2013. This page contains the available projects, all the the projects should follow the following template.
Title of the project
Description of the project: At least 8-10 lines describing what the project is about; it is really important to have a good description if you want to attract students who are interested by the idea. This does not need to be a very technical description, but something that stirs interest and is complete enough to allow a student to judge whether s/he wants to work on the particular project or not. It does not need to be a complete road map either and does not need to explain all the tiny details and whatnot -- the mentor can tell that to interested students, or they can work out the exact details together.
Confirmed Mentor: Name of the mentor
How to contact the mentor: (mail, IRC, etc)
Confirmed co-mentors: It is not compulsory to have co-mentors, but it is a good idea. Secondary mentors do not need to be as knowledgeable as the first one in the project, but they should be available to help the student if s/he is stuck and the main mentor is busy / not available.
Deliverables of the project:
Desirable skills: Skills that the student has or is willing to develop. Remember, the students do not have as much experience as the mentor.
What the student will learn: At least 2-3 lines telling the students the skills they develop and how they will improve Debian. Do not focus on the technologies, rather use something that could motivate the prospective student to take your project.
Project idea: a cloud image for bioinformatics with Debian
Description of the project: To be done after lunch (stay tuned).
Advocate: CharlesPlessy
Potential mentor: To be determined.
How to contact the mentor: mail: debian-med@lists.debian.org or debian-cloud@lists.debian.org
Deliverables of the project: Bioinformatics with Debian on the Cloud
Desirable skills: Familiarity with virtualisation, cloud environments, or scientific computing are a good start.
What the student will learn: Depending on the contents of the proposal, the student will learn about the Debian system and its installation, about the Debian Blends, and about the Debian infrastructure.
