Hi all, the GSoC FAQ was recently published [1] and I wondered if Twisted could be a mentoring organization for the next installment of the GSoC program. I think it's a good opportunity to bring new developers to Twisted by having a mentor. I was a GSoC student last year and it was pretty fun. I'd offer my help to mentor a student, but I think I couldn't become an official mentor (though I'd like to be one) as I'm not a Twisted developer. In any case, I could bring my experience as an ex-student :-) Anyway, some areas a student could give a helping hand are: - porting some Twisted.web2 feature(s) to Twisted.web - improving support for Twisted in Jython or IronPython - porting Amp to Java, C++, etc. - adding or improving support for Twisted in an external library (e.g. Thrift, Amazon services, Storm, Protocol Buffers, etc.) What do you think?
