Great work done by the 2024 Google Summer of Code contributors working on Debian! Read all about their experience here: outreach-team.pages.debian.net… #debian #gsoc


You are using #LibreOffice but don't want to create or modify a complex citation style for your needs?
Thanks to our #GSOC contributor, you can now choose from the vast amount of #CSL styles in JabRef and use them together with LibreOffice.

I blogged about my Google Summer of Code project where I added TypeScript support to Workbench!

Great news for #KDEConnect and another win for funding #opensource and #internships.

Thanks to the hard work of ShellWen Chen (颉文) for #GSoC, the SSHD server used for #SFTP has been upgraded!

Check out their Ko-fi for donations, links to GitHub, etc.

This summer, #Kdenlive is all about the ASS. Yup you heard it right, .ass subtitle support is coming along with some nifty other features like multiple subtitle tracks. Stay tuned for more.

Stepping down as GNOME Internships organizer

For the past nine years, I’ve been actively involved in our internship initiatives with Google Summer of Code and Outreachy. As an alumnus of these programs, I firmly believe they are great ways to onboard new contributors to GNOME and help students start a career in open-source software.

However, as my work responsibilities have grown and I’ve started some personal (non-software) projects, I’ve found myself with less time and energy for this type of contribution.

I’ve been discussing this with key people over the past year, and I plan to stay around to hand over responsibilities to other members of the Internship Committee. I will continue helping manage things for 2024, but I won’t be directly involved beyond that.

If you’re interested in helping with these activities, please reach out to the GNOME Internship Committee.

Next week I will travel to #GUADEC #GUADEC2024 to Denver, CO, in the US.

Perhaps some of you have read my #OpenPrinting News from May where I tell that 2004 was a magic year and so we have a lot 20th anniversaries in FOSS now.

And the 2 keynotes on GUADEC are about 2 of them: Ryan Sipes, CEO of #Thunderbird @thunderbird and Stephanie Taylor, program lead of #GSoC!

TypeScript progress in Workbench 👀

• Inline type checks
• Auto completion

Awesome update and progress by GNOME GSoC student @atbrat on porting Workbench demos to Vala

Vala took the lead over Python 😉

Thanks to @lw64 and @dimmednerd for reviewing

I met with @pabloyoyoista today. We talked, amongst other, about the directions of Papers. As part of my #GSoC project, for example, I'm tackling gestures. It'll be a clean-up as much as will enable touchscreen users, who currently cannot select text, nor add annotations.
Yes, the pizza at the end is obligatory. (Would've been a boring picture otherwise, right?) And yes, they were paid for from a #postmarketOS running device.

I've read it here already, so chances are you did as well. It is true: I will make Papers – the soon-to-be default document viewer in GNOME – work on mobile, while improving the UI in general.

I'm granted a #gsoc stipend to work on Papers – together with my mentor @pabloyoyoista. We looked into some things today, already.

I'm excited to make Linux on Mobile a viable alternative for more people. But probably you knew that already, from my other involvements.


GNOME will be mentoring 8 new contributors for Google Summer of Code 2024

We are happy to announce that GNOME was assigned eight slots for Google Summer of Code projects this year!

GSoC is a program focused on bringing new contributors into open source software development. A number of long term GNOME developers are former GSoC interns, making the program a very valuable entry point for new members in our project.

In 2024 we will mentoring the following projects:

Project TitleContributorAssigned Mentor(s)
Add TypeScript Support to WorkbenchAngelo Verlain ShemaSonny Piers
Port Workbench demos to Vala, build a new Workbench Library, and replace the current code searchBharat TyagiSonny Piers
Improve Tracker SPARQL developer experience by creating a “web IDE” for developing queriesDemigodCarlos Garnacho
Papers’ small screen and touch support for mobile and tabletMarkus GöllnitzPablo Correa Gomez
More durable synching for FlatSyncMattia FormichettiRasmus Thomsen
Port libipuz to Rustpranjal_jrb
Improve Tracker SPARQL developer experience by creating “web IDE” for developing queriesrachle08Carlos Garnacho
Add support for the latest GIR attributes and gi-docgen formatting to Valadocsudhanshuv1Lorenz Wildberg

As part of the contributor’s acceptance into GSoC they are expected to actively participate in the Community Bonding period (May 1 – 26). The Community Bonding period is intended to help prepare contributors to start contributing at full speed starting May 27.

The new contributors will soon get their blogs added to Planet GNOME making it easy for the GNOME community to get to know them and the projects that they will be working on.

We would like to also thank our mentors for supporting GSoC and helping new contributors enter our project.

If you have any doubts, feel free to reply to this Discourse topic or message us privately at soc-admins@gnome.org

Now, @Aryan20 is presenting at #GNOMEAsia2023 about @gnome extensions and the ecosystem. How do extensions fit into the desktop scene?

He builds on his work done as a #GSoC intern and why the flexibility and customization of the desktop grows the success of the #OpenSource ecosystem.
