[GRASS-dev] We need mentors for Google Code-In

[Veronica Andreo]

Hey devs,

As the subject reads: We need more mentors for Google Code-In :)

GCI is a competition addressed to high-school students aged 13-17, as an
introduction to the open source world. They are supposed to complete as
much tasks as possible to win the contest. These tasks should be short
simple stuff (3-5 hours), but since they have to complete several to win,
we need to plan lots of them and be available to review what the students
submit rather quickly, so they can start with a new one. For that reason,
it is better if we are more mentors.

Here is the GRASS wiki [0] with more details and a collection of ideas for
tasks that should then be further explained and developed in the format of
tasks. I think the ideas are nice and this could be a funny experience.
Moreover, we could attract new generations and benefit from their
creativity ;)

Thanks!

Vero
