See http://my.bzflag.org/w/Google_Summer_of_Code_Acceptance for a very good set of "rules" for the students. We should consider copying and adapting that. In particular, it should be absolutely mandatory for all participating students to provide updates once a week, with the clear message that failure to do so without excuse *in advance* will, after a warning, result in exclusion from GSoC. See also http://my.bzflag.org/gsoc/bzflag_gsoc2007_post_mortem.pdf -- quite cool document, maybe we can do something similar? [[User:Fingolfin|Fingolfin]] 18:14, 25 February 2008 (CET)

* I could also mentor the software renderer of residual or the high quality mixer.
 
* maybe we should split the page between SoC for students and the SoC proposal.
Should we be accepted for GSoC 2009, we should add an Expectation page, resp. edit one of our existing pages, modeled after http://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/Expectations [[User:Fingolfin|Fingolfin]] 21:34, 6 September 2008 (CEST)
* we could copy the open tasks page to another page and edit it, making it more focused for students. We can setup a common template, like: intro, what will a student learn, a few milestones etc. This can be brief; remember students have to propose their work.
* For our proposal. I think a few pages (perhaps <5) will do the trick. We need to fix the structure and start working on it. For the questions laid out in the application example in Soc: Questions 3-9, 11-12 are pretty straightforward. We need to pitch 1 and 2 very carefully. we also could use a template for student apps (10). Q13: short bios could be of use there. Each mentor could prepare a couple of para's with experience related to the subjects he's going to mentor. We also need to come up with a plan for 14-17. no idea there yet.
