I have something written up. I'll paste it inline here, but please do let me know if there's someone or some place that I am supposed to send it. Thanks! -seth -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [kde-promo] writer needed: dot story for GSoC From: Lydia Pintscher <[email protected]> Date: Mon, February 24, 2014 12:00 pm To: KDE Promo <[email protected]>, KDE SoC Mentor <[email protected]> Hey folks :) Anyone up for writing a short dot story announcing that KDE has been accepted for GSoC? Doesn't need to be long. Should have: * we're accepted. Yay! * GSoC logo * why GSoC is awesome * we're looking forward to working once again with a lot of really awesome students on kick-ass projects * link to our ideas list at http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2014/Ideas Cheers Lydia -- Lydia Pintscher - http://about.me/lydia.pintscher KDE e.V.

The KDE Project is happy to announce that it has been accepted in the annual Google Summer of Code for 2014. This will allow students from around the world to work on developing existing KDE software whilst receiving sponsorship from Google. <add gsoc logo here> The Google Summer of Code programme offers not only development funding but also mentorship to students who want to work on open source software projects. The programme provides students the opportunity to learn more about coding, working within structured software development environments, and to push bug fixes and new features into real-world, production software. For Google and the rest of the world, the programme provides improvements to the software that millions of computerists use on a daily basis. The ideas on what a student entering the GSoC programme might work on are offered from developers and uses alike. The KDE project has a list for the 2014 workload online at http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2014/Ideas. Depending on what students choose to develop, this could mean it will be a big year for popular KDE software such as Amarok, digiKam, Marble, Krita, the PIM suite, and more. The KDE® Community is an international technology team dedicated to creating a free and user-friendly computing experience, offering an advanced graphical desktop, a wide variety of applications for communication, work, education and entertainment and a platform to easily build new applications upon.
