Hi everyone,
Congratulations to all the GSoC students selected this year! Looking forward to working with you. I think Abhilash has covered almost everything in his welcome email so I would advise all the students to go through that. :)
A brief introduction about myself since I haven't spoken to some of you earlier:
While I have never directly been a GSoC student for GNU Mailman, I have worked on Mailman under the Systers organisation (Postorius mainly) and was a co-mentor for the previous Summer of Code. My experience with this organisation and the people here has been a wonderful, inspiring one and I have learnt a LOT. I only hope you feel the same way at the end of this summer program and have fun along the way!
Best, Sneha

Fellow friends of Mailman, dear students,
welcome to GSoC 2015 (the Mailman edition)!
Congratulations to all of the applicants on the high quality of applications!
For those who were not selected, I'd be happy to discuss your applications off-list (and by mail, not IRC, I'm still catching up on $DAYJOB so replies may take a few days).
But now, without further ado, let's welcome our three GSoC students:
Congratulations to the selected students!
And a personal note:
Bhavesh Goyal - A Dashboard for Admins/Owners/Moderators Mentors: Abhilash Raj, Sneha Priscilla Makini
I've mentored a similar project in the past (Shanu Salunke's "Mailman Interface" for Systers), so feel free to include me in discussions.
That said, speaking as an individual mentor, I would really like to see most technical discussions take place on this list, or at least be summarized here. I hope folks not participating in GSoC will bear with us (hi, Andrew! some of your older posts are in my queue, someday soon...). Besides wanting to see what students I'm *not* mentoring are up to, we've had issues in the past where a project went off in an unprofitable (ie, hard to integrate) direction when the mentor and student were communicating almost exclusively in personal mail and IRC direct messages.
Although your mentor has a *responsibility* to answer you, the rest of us care and want to contribute, and that's easiest if you post to this list.
Here's to a fun and productive summer for everyone!
Steve
