Hi all
Applications for GSoC 2023 are open and I would like to apply.
Program details: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/programs/2023
You may need to log in with a Google account.
We could go under the PSF umbrella again (they've applied already), or
we could go it alone. The advantage to the PSF is we can possibly
borrow a mentor from them as we did in 2022 and they'll do some of the
org admin stuff, the advantage to a separate Mailman org is money and
tickets to the Mentor Summit if …
[View More]they do that. There may be other
stuff I haven't thought about. If we decide to apply ourselves but
get cold feet, I suppose we can withdraw without penalty and go with
PSF if we do so a reasonable time before deadline (Feb 8).
I need some backing from core devs (at least one backup mentor, which
is light work if I'm healthy), but I plan to post to the lists to see
if any of the usual suspects would like to be mentors, too.

Hi everybody
We still have no mentors for GSOC 2023. Last chance to sign up
(with the Python Software Foundation org) is Feb 25.
- You don't need to be a Mailman core dev or a Python guru.
- Generic mail geeks welcome.
- Code spelunking (ie, "grepping for error messages") is very
desirable.
- Some Python, obviously.
- Experience using and preferably administering Mailman.
- Opinions about existing bugs and new features a must, of course! ;-)
Requires a couple hours a week, somewhat …
[View More]irregularly, from secondary
mentors (you), more like 5-10 from primary mentor (me, and you if the
bus factor comes into play).
Anybody interested, let me know. If you have questions about it,
please respond on-list so others can see.
