Globus Selected as a Google Summer of Code 2008 Mentoring Organization

iStock_000002311523Small.jpgThe Globus Alliance has been selected as a Google Summer of Code 2008 mentoring organization. Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a program that offers student developers stipends to write code for various open source projects. Google works with several open source, free software, and technology-related groups to identify and fund several projects over a three month period. Historically, the program has brought together over 1,500 students with over 130 open source projects to create millions of lines of code. The program, which kicked off in 2005, is now in its fourth year.

If you are a student and would be interested in participating in GSoC with Globus as your mentoring organization, please take a look at our GSoC Ideas page. This page lists projects that Globus has proposed for GSoC, but it is not a closed list. If you have an idea for a cool project that uses or extends Globus technologies, please take a look at our list of Globus GSoC mentors and contact the one which most closely matches your interests. Take into account that student proposals must be submitted by March 31st and that you must meet Google's student eligibility criteria.

If you have any questions about our participation in GSoC, please contact the Globus GSoC administrators.
