Hello
I am a 3rd year student of Computer Science and Engineering at Manipal
Institute of Technology. I came to know about GSoC through the local Linux
Users Group. I am relatively new to the world of open source. i enjoy
coding and am pretty dedicated towards it.
I have put up a proposal for the Language Coverage Matrix Dashboard project
listed in GSoC 2013. It would provide a much more visually attractive LCM
alongside highly useful functionalities like search, filters and data
visualization.
Following is my proposal

Hi,
I am an applicant for Google Summer of Code and proposing to build an
Authorship Tracking mediawiki extension.
I am looking for mentors and would appreciate feedback on the proposal
which can be found here

Many many thanks,

At the risk of starting another huge bikeshed like [1] I feel like we need
some good guidance on just how in the heck we are required to license
extensions/images/source code files. With the help of Marktraceur we now
have
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Coding_conventions#Source_File_Headers
which
is somewhat specific to PHP but could be generalized to JS, CSS, and SQL.
[1] http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2013-March/067217.html
But I have some additional questions... breaking this up into bits; my
current thought matrix is that:
== Extensions ==
* Must have a LICENSE file in the root with the full text of the license
for the extension, and appended any additional licenses for
libraries/resources they've pulled in
** How do we specify what license goes to what included component?
== PHP Files ==
* For generic files, include a statement like
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Coding_conventions#Source_File_Headers
* If it's the Extension.php file $wgExtensionCredits array should have the
following items
** author
** version
** url
** license?
** If we include additional libraries, so we add another entry to the
wgExtensionCredits array?
== JS/CSS Files ==
This gets a bit confusing because apparently we're supposed to have a
license in every bit of content pushed to the user; did we ever settle that
huge thread in any meaninful way? E.g. how to push minimized but licensed
files?
== Image Files ==
Really shouldn't be licensed under GPLv2; but right now they implicitly
are. Is there a way to explicitly identify image/binary content as being CC
licensed? Do we just add a line to the license file about this?
== And... go! ==

Hi,
The deadline for submissions to the FOSS Outreach Program for Women is
*** 19:00pm UTC on May 1, 2013 ***
You must send your application to opw-list{}gnome.org before the
deadline. No exceptions!
https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen#Send_in_an_Application
You can keep improving your proposal in your project wiki page after the
deadline. It is ok if you haven't completed your mandatory contribution
yet. It is also ok if you don't have two co-mentors confirmed yet.
Also remember:
http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2013-April/068842.html
If you hesitate, just apply. You will have more days to ask questions
and improve your proposal.
After applying you can add yourself to
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Outreach_Program_for_Women#Candidates
What happens after submitting your OPW proposal:
* If you are also applying to GSoC then focus on GSoC. The first
evaluation will be done in that context following the GSoC process and
without any gender specific considerations.
* If your proposal is strictly for OPW then we will start evaluating it
and we might come back to you with questions.
The official announcement of accepted interns will be done by the OPW
program on May 27:
https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2013/JuneSeptember#Schedule
However, we might confirm some or all the Wikimedia interns by May 10.
It will partially depend on the GSoC selection process.
Good luck to everybody!
