Dear All,

We are happy and elated to announce that OSGeo has been accepted once again as a mentor organization for GSoC 2022.

  1. The list of accepted organizations is at [0]. Our OSGeo GSoC 2022 application is available at [1].
  2. Please note the Potential GSoC contributors (Student + Professional) discuss application ideas with the mentoring organizations from March 7 - April 3, 2022. So, be ready to be flooded with queries by potential contributors in the coming period. :slight_smile:
  3. GSoC contributors will be able to register and submit their applications from April 4 - April 19, 2022. All proposals must be submitted by April 19, 2022, at 18:00 UTC.
  4. Mentors of the projects who have already updated their ideas in the OSGeo GSoC 2022 ideas list, kindly fill out the Google Form [2] so that we can start sending the invitations.

We still have time for more projects to participate with ideas [3].
It is a good opportunity to:
• Add functionality to your projects.
• Attract more contributors participating in the projects, times they become long-term contributors.

OSGeo projects, Incubating projects, and community projects are welcome.

Also, please join us in welcoming Ashish Kumar to the OSGeo GSoC Administration Team. Ashish has been a 2-times GSoC contributor for pgRouting with OSGeo and also a Charter Member. Welcome, @Ashish Kumar! :slight_smile: If you are interested in joining the Organization Administration team and have been involved with the OSGeo GSoC initiative in the past with rich experience, please reach out to us.
