Google Summer of Code: Minix 3 and many other OS projects
Posted: Tue Mar 27, 2012 7:45 am
Hi all,
It's Google Summer of Code time again. The deadline for applications is April 6, so there's plenty of time to get those proposals together.
If you're unfamiliar with the program, Google will pay you $5000 USD to hack on your favorite OS project. For those reading OSDI 3rd ed, this is a great way to dive into Minix 3 development. Check out the Minix 3 GSoC Page, and feel free to propose your own idea. There are a lot of other fine OS projects participating as well. You can find more information on the program on the GSoC page: socghop.appspot.com.
If you know any university students or you're affiliated with a university, please spread the word. It's a great program. MINIX 3 has participated in 2008-2011, and we've had awesome students every year.
If you'd like to work on MINIX this summer, drop by #minix on Freenode and post on our newsgroup. We'd be happy to chat with you about your proposals.
