GNOME intern Akshay Warrier made this to tease us mentors about the state of PRs reviews 😄

By the way, Akshay wrote a pretty cool blog post about their experience at GUADEC

There is a link to the video of their great project presentation too.

:google: Who out here is going to the #GSoC Mentor Summit and willing to propose an unconference session on why locking down the web is a Bad Thing? #GoogleSummerOfCode

A rare shout out to Google from the stage at #FOSSY, for having supported @outreachy from the very beginning _and never stopping_.

For all the companies who are fair weather friends, the team behind Google Summer of Code remain steadfast supporters.

It was an honor to be a program manager on the #GSoC program for a few years and come to understand the scope of the impact that team has made in FOSS. #OpenSource

Stuff that demotivates me most, so I tend to avoid to contribute to projects that use:

1. Proprietary code hosting and CI/CD, e.g. #github

2. #bigtech whitewashing, e.g. #gsoc

3. Non #foss communication infra, e.g. #discord

Highlights are

• Fully sandboxed
• An improved previewer
• 18 new library entries

Thank you to all new contributors, specially #GSoC and #Outreachy applicants.

Got support from Louis while working on Workbench today.

• Reviewed #GSoC applicant contributions
• Improved the developer experience
• Project planning

We got a lot of interest and already received contributions to add Library entries for GtkSwitch, GtkSpinner, AdwAvatar and GtkButton.

Thanks!

Some additional notes about the #GSoC project

We will accept multiple candidates.

If you are a #JavaScript / #Web developer with interest in the #GNOME platform – this is a great fit

#Vala developers are welcome to apply

The project might also be available via outreachy.org

I have added a contributing guide to help you get started https://github.com/sonnyp/Workbench/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md

Workbench has been accepted as a #GNOME #GSoC internship project ✨

#Google legal team have banned #OpenSource contributors living in Russia, Belarus, and occupied Ukraine from participating in Summer of Code. That'll really teach Putin a lesson...
