This page coordinates the Google Summer of Code projects involving Python under the umbrella of the Python Software Foundation (PSF) in 2013.
The 2013 PSF GSoC coordinator is TerriOda (at gmail.com).
Prospective StudentsIf you are a student interested in working on core Python development or on a project that helps the Python community, we'd love to have you apply to the Python Software Foundation for this year's Google Summer of Code.
You should join the soc2013-general mailing list and take a look at the Project Ideas section below. These ideas are intended to give a general idea what each project is looking for, you're strongly encouraged to talk with developers from these projects to learn more about them and flesh out your proposal.
Application deadline is Friday, May 3 2013. We strongly encourage you to submit your application(s) much earlier than this so you can work with your prospective mentor(s) in refining your application.
All prospective students are required to have completed the following to pass final screening:
Blog for their GSoC project. Free blogs are available at http://www.blogger.com/
The code contribution is intended to demonstrate your ability to work with the project's toolchain, your current programming skill in contrast with the goals stated in your application, and your ability to work with the project's developers.
Students should read SummerOfCode/Expectations to understand what is expected of accepted students.
Please read SummerOfCode/Application for help completing your application.
Please use SummerOfCode/ApplicationTemplate2013 as a template for creating your application.
For other dates and deadlines, see the GSoC official website (scroll down past the calendar to just get a list of dates)
If you are a student, and have questions:
If it is about GSoC under the PSF more generally, or you can't find the project contact information, please email the soc2013-general@python.org mailing list.
If you're considering mentoring a GSoC student, read SummerOfCode/Expectations to understand what is expected of GSoC project mentors.
If your team has not done so already, please contact TerriOda to participate in GSoC under the PSF umbrella.
If your team has already been accepted it should appear below. Ask your project's contact person how to get set up as an official mentor.
Project IdeasIdeas for projects and links to Python-related teams' idea pages will appear here once mentors have gotten in touch with TerriOda. This list should now be close to complete. If you are unsure if your favourite Python project will be participating, ask them and encourage them to sign up!
