Re: [WikimediaMobile] Google Code-in: are you in?

Google Code-In is a contest to introduce pre-university students (ages 13-17) to the many kinds of contributions that make open source software development possible. Students must complete tasks (see examples), one at a time. The Google Code-in 2013 contest runs from November 18, 2013 to January 6, 2014. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-In In theory, this program could be very useful to fix little bugs and implement little features (or bigger, if we know how to split the tasks), especially in those mobile projects that don't get the top priority. I have been told by Google and various organization participanting in the past that Android development is one of strongest skills among Code-in participants, with iOS and mobile web development scoring also pretty well. What do you think? We are currently preparing the proposal to apply by Oct 28, next Monday. If you can add at least 5 tasks to the wiki page linked above then you will be ready for the next level - if we are one of the organizations selected on November 1. If you have questions just ask, here or at the related talk page. -- Quim Gil Technical Contributor Coordinator @ Wikimedia Foundation http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Qgil _______________________________________________ Mobile-l mailing list Mobile-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mobile-l
