[Numpy-discussion] Participation in GSoD 2020

[Melissa Mendonça]

Thanks for your interest in our Google Season of Docs projects. It is great
to hear from you!

For now, all the information you need about the program is in the official
GSoD website (https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs), and in our
proposal (
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/wiki/Google-Season-of-Docs-2020-Project-Ideas).


If you are interested, I would advise working on the following:

- Familiarizing yourself with the NumPy docs and the workflow for building
them (https://numpy.org/devdocs/dev/howto-docs.html)
- Reading NEP 44 to have an idea of the current vision and focus for the
docs (https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0044-restructuring-numpy-docs.html)
- Working on your own proposal, so we can analyze it later.

You have until June 8 to do this, and if you need help or have questions
about any of the above, please get in touch so we can help. Make sure you
get in touch with the mentors directly by sending your message to
numpy-scipy-gsod at googlegroups.com .

Please be aware that although the mentors can answer questions and give you
information, **you must write your own project**.

Welcome!

- Melissa
