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… 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… 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_projects<… 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. -- Quim Gil Technical Contributor Coordinator @ Wikimedia Foundation http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/**User:Qgil<http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/… ______________________________**_________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/**mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l<https://lists.… _______________________________________________ Gendergap mailing list Gendergap(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/gendergap -- Daria Cybulska - Programme Manager, Wikimedia UK +44 (0) 207 065 0994 +44 7803 505 170 -- Wikimedia UK is a Company Limited by Guarantee registered in England and Wales, Registered No. 6741827.
