Improving voice, video and chat communication with free software
Description of the project: have a look through the project ideas at project.freertc.org. Filter the list using the tags for programming languages you are most familiar with (for example, C, C++, Python, Java, PHP). In your application, specify which of the ideas you would like to work on. Some of these are only small projects and you will need to propose doing more than one of them during the summer.
How to contact the mentor: join the Free RTC mailing list and send a message introducing yourself
Confirmed co-mentors: Do you know anybody who is willing to be part of the mentoring team? If so, please ask them to contact me.
Deliverables of the project: completing one or more of the issues in project.freertc.org
Desirable skills: At least one of C, C++, Java, Python, ?JavaScript
What the intern will learn: helping people to avoid using proprietary communications tools like Skype, Viber and ?WhatsApp. Learning about SIP, XMPP and peer-to-peer technology.
Mentoring team
It is preferable to ask questions on the Free RTC mailing list or the Debian Outreach / GSoC mailing list rather than emailing mentors privately.
