Google Summer of Code Deadline is Friday April 8, 19:00 UTC

The deadline for student applications is Friday at 19:00 UTC.

If you haven't applied but wish to you will find the summer of code home page here http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2011.  If you know of a student who is interested and are not sure that they have made their proposal, please pass this along.

Each year, Google's Summer of Code program funds university students around the world with stipends of $5000US to spend 12 weeks working on advancing open source projects.  With news of Plone acceptance, we're accepting applications from students interested in being involved, as well as mentors to help oversee their work. You can see a list of some of the ideas which have been put out there for student projects on the Plone Summer of Code Ideas Page.

Leading Plone's GSoC effort this year is Kevin Kalupson. Students interested in applying can find out more on the GSOC website or getting feedback on their ideas on Plone mailing lists and IRC at #plone.
