A few days ago Google Summer of Code announced that Apache Software Foundation is again elected to participate as a mentor organization.
We are looking for ideas, students and mentors willing to
participate in GSoC 2020. Anyone in the Camel community can propose an idea,
look at the JIRA issues labeled
gsoc2020
or create new issues with ideas and set the
gsoc2020
label. Have a look at the Mentor
guide to understand the role of
the mentor and the obligations you would take on.
Students, please take the time to familiarize yourself with the Camel
project, look into subprojects and find areas that are interesting for you to
participate in. Camel covers a wide range of interesting technologies and
challenges, typical areas of contribution are improvements to existing
components, adding new
components or
doing improvements to the core of Camel. There are exciting developments if
you’re interested in Kubernetes in the Camel K, fast
startup and low memory footprint in Camel
Quarkus, or stream processing in Camel
Kafka subprojects. Also look for issues
labeled with
help-wanted
for easy issues to get started with to gain some experience contributing to
Camel and introduce yourself to the Camel community.
Mentors need to be existing Camel comitters and need to apply by first sending an email to the private@camel.apache.org,mentors@community.apache.org as in the following example:
