We are now looking for mentors for the next round of Outreachy running
from December 7, 2015 to March 7, 2016. I have set up a wiki page
here:
http://qemu-project.org/Outreachy_2015_DecemberMarch
Our communities have participated in previous years to mentor people
from underrepresented groups and help them get involved in open source
software. To learn more, see the Outreachy website:
https://www.gnome.org/outreachy/
If you are a regular contributor to QEMU, libvirt, or the KVM kernel
module then you can become an Outreachy mentor. Information on what's
involved is here:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/Admin/InfoForMentors
Mentoring summary:
1. Post your project ideas here:
http://qemu-project.org/Outreachy_2015_DecemberMarch
2. You give each applicant a different small task so they can submit a
patch upstream. You also interview promising candidates on IRC to get
a better picture. Then you select a candidate you wish to work with
(or none).
3. Requires 5 hours/week from December 2015 to March 2016 to mentor
your intern, review their code, answer their questions, etc.
If you'd like to become a mentor, please let me know.
We are also looking for sponsors who wish to fund Outreachy interns
for QEMU, libvirt, and the KVM kernel module. The sponsorship for one
intern is $6,500. Learn more about sponsorship:
