You may submit more than one application (one application for each project you would enjoy working on) if you so desire. Students should propose a task that they are comfortable and knowledgeable with performing within the timeframe of the program and considering any extenuating circumstances. Your ability to perform the task is outright presumed by the nature of submitting a detailed application. Brief proposals do not generally do very well. Students should propose what they actually want to work on, how you intend to work on it, what you intend to DO, what you know about that task, some details about yourself, etc. In the past, submitting closer to the deadline hasn't been a negative consideration, as all submissions are predominantly judged on merit, but submitting and discussing early do tend to be an advantage if there are others applications that have similar goals. See our Application Guidelines for more details.Įarly proposal submissions are encouraged as it gives the mentors more time to review the proposal in detail, comment on it, potentially ask for additional input, and iterate with the student on your ideas. C/C++ proposals are generally preferred since that is our predominant codebase and developer expertise though others are considered. Applications should specify what you intend to deliver, a reasonable development timeline, and any implementation details that are relevant such as what language(s) you intend to use. Proposals that are detailed in their approach and contain useful background information about the individual's abilities and their ideas will generally receive more attention. students are strongly encouraged to be detailed, creative, and interactive with the BZFlag developers throughout the application process. There is intentionally no specific format to our applications.

Formulate a proposal idea, communicate with devs.

If this interests you, please let us know and submit a GSoC application.īZFlag will not be applying to SOC 2010 in order to concentrate on the release of V3. In all, the program is a pretty darn good deal for many students, great publicity and marketing for both Google and BZFlag, and an excellent opportunity for attracting new long-term BZFlag developers.Īttracting and mentoring new long-term developers is our primary goal. If the student successfully completes what they propose, they are ultimately paid $4500 for their work and the BZFlag community hopefully gains a new long-term developer. Students are expected to be fully integrated with the BZFlag development community throughout the program, actively engaged in their work, and intently working with the other BZFlag developers throughout the design and implementation of their projects. Students that participate with the BZFlag project are required to adhere to specified development requirements, selected students then work on their projects through the summer. Google allocates a certain number of slots to each participating project/organization which in turn determines how many student developers we get to work with. Student proposals are then reviewed, evaluated, and ranked by the project. The student efforts are focused on projects that they themselves propose to projects such as BZFlag, sometimes catering to ideas that the project suggests or ideas entirely of the student's own conception.

Under this program, Google funds students to write code for open source projects during the northern hemisphere's summer timeframe.
