[SoC] OSGeo GSoC weekly reports

[Helmut Kudrnovsky]

Dear students,

we hope you had a good start into the GSoC coding period 2018!

Thanks for your first weekly reports!

Refering here to some important notes from [1] for the upcoming weekly reports:

* It’s very important that you send your weekly report on time. If you’re blocked by anything to send your weekly report on time (every Sunday during the coding period), please post this beforehand on the SOC ML.

just keep us (admins, mentors, other GSoC students, larger interested community) proactively informed by dropping a short note on SOC ML if it's not possibe for you to send the weekly report in time (Sunday).

* Weekly email report content

1) What did I complete this week?
2) What am I going to achieve for next week?
3) Is there any blocking issue?

these items should be used in the email report on the SOC ML; at the same time, your wiki has to be kept in sync with the emailed report.

thus, if not already done, just copy these items weekly reported by mail to your wiki.

so it's easy to produce a full report of your coding progress for your evaluations. further, in the upcoming weeks, with progress in coding, reference also your commits in the weekly report.

and a general reminder:

** For any question or clarification, do not hesitate to contact us, the OSGeo GSoC admins. Please, do contact us in case you experience problems at any time during your GSoC, e.g. you are not able to contact your mentors, you experience communication hurdles or similar issues. ** 

Do not wait until it's too late...follow the Open Source principle: “Release early, release
often”. :-)

Good luck!
