openSUSE 和 GSOC 2012:准备好了!
2012 年 4 月 26 日 | 新闻团队 | 无许可
谷歌发布了 12 个学生提案,这些提案已被接受用于 openSUSE 的 2012 年谷歌夏季代码项目。这意味着 12 名学生将在今年夏天全职工作,改变世界!
51 个提案,12 名学生被接受
非常感谢每一位花费时间构思和撰写优秀提案的学生:我们总共收到了 51 个提案!今年谷歌向 openSUSE 分配了 12 个学生名额。这意味着我们很难做出决定!哪些项目将使 openSUSE 受益最大,哪些将让学生学到最多?我们是指导新学生,还是给已经熟悉 openSUSE 的人机会,让他们投入一些实际时间?还有实际的考虑因素。我们并非对所有项目都有导师,或者每位导师指导多名学生。有些导师只能在晚上指导,有些只能在白天指导——我们还必须注意时区。
但我们已经从大家提供的精彩想法中筛选出 12 个提案,这些学生现在必须为他们精彩的暑期工作加油!
