Dear GSoC mentors:
Here is a heads up about the GSoC Mentor Summit: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Mentorship_programs/Possible_mentors#GSo...
With an implicit heads up for the completion of the community bonding period: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2013#Community_bonding_period
So far Aarti, Molly, Moriel and Pragun have marked this first milestone as completed: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2013#Projects
Congratulations! I hope all the rest will be also checked by next Monday. :)

Nobody signed up? I'm sure we can fill the 2 seats only with WMF employees based in San Francisco, but...
Anyway, since today the GSoC bonding period is officially over and everybody should have started working on development tasks. Is this the case?

According to the GSoC table there are 8 out 20 students that haven't completed the bonding period yet. Is it just about updating the table or is there more? If you start letting things slip now it will be more difficult to catch up as weeks pass.
We will have a GSoC/OPW IRC AllHands next week. Tentative:

In addition to this, I will meet all the student/mentors teams one by one via videoconference.
Happy coding!
Hi, I'm hoping to finish the blog post about GSoC / OPW this week. I'm drafting it at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Blog/Drafts/GSoC_OPW_fake_title#Yev...
I started with the excerpts of the students user pages, so you have more time to look at them and edit at well. These are your words, I just cut the quotes to similar, short sizes trying to leave the essence and an attitude...
Every entry will have also a mention to the mentors, linking to their user pages as in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_mentors

Ok, at least someone did. Just to make sure the circumstances are lcear: this is a great event, travel and accommodation is sponsored and hundreds of mentors out there wish to be invited.

I have sent a ping to the 4 teams that haven't added a "Bonding: OK" tag to the table yet. Hopefully the only problem is that they forgot to edit the table and all the rest is fine, with their projects started and well focused.

This is now confirmed and I will send a proper invitation to all students and mentors.
