Macro test

For the fourth time, Mono has been accepted as a mentoring organization for Google’s Summer of Code.

I started contributing to Mono at the end of 2004, and I was lucky to be accepted as a student for the very first Summer of Code during the 2005 summer. And I was even luckier to be accepted again the year after. This year, just like the year before, I’m a possible mentor.

The Summer of Code is an amazing opportunity for young developers to be involved in a FOSS project, to learn, to practice programming on exciting projects, while being surrounded with talented peoples. And also to have a great summer. And to get a cool t-shirt.

Oh, and for what it’s worth, five students (including me) from the previous SoC editions are now employed by Novell to work on Mono or Moonlight.

So yeah, if I had an advice, that would be to go have a look at the proposed tasks, you can even submit your own original proposal if you think you have a bright idea, and apply for it. You have three days.
