Forwarding to QA list, in case somebody is interested. We had one intern in
round 6 and I think it was a great experience for the intern (Rachel[1])
and for mentors (Chris and me).

PLEASE FORWARD TO WHOEVER MIGHT BE INTERESTED

Wikimedia will participate in the FOSS Outreach Program for Women - Round
7. Interns of this program work full time in an open source project during
4 months.

https://www.mediawiki.org/**wiki/FOSS_Outreach_Program_**for_Women<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/FOSS_Outreach_Program_for_Women>

Candidates interested are encouraged to add themselves to the table at
https://www.mediawiki.org/**wiki/Outreach_Program_for_**
Women/Round_7#Candidates<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_Program_for_Women/Round_7#Candidates>-
even if you are still preparing your proposal.

We are actually running late (my fault). The application process is open
until November 11. The internship period goes from December 10 to March 10,
2014.

The Wikimedia Foundation is planning to fund up to 8 interns. This is a
great opportunity for Wikimedia / MediaWiki related projects. Our process
is quite simple: define a project, find the mentors and go for it!

https://www.mediawiki.org/**wiki/Mentorship_programs/**Possible_mentors<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_mentors>

The previous featured projects and confirmed mentors have been moved
respectively to the Raw and Bench sections. If you want to participate in
this OPW round move the entries back to the featured sections.

New projects and mentors are welcome too, of course!

If you have any questions please ask.
