[Biojava-dev] Fwd: GSOC 2015

[Edgar S. Hurtado]

I would love to participate. I wasn’t as interested in being paid as in getting a mentor. I’ve been programming just for 8 months and I wondered if this could be enough background to start doing some little begginer-friendly contributions.


I’ve never contributed in any project before, so I don’t know if I just should fork the repo and try things or look the open issues and try to resolve one of them. However I didn’t see any issue where I understand what I should do. That’s why I thought that being mentored could be good for me.


Regards

Yes, we’ve just posted this unfortunate news to the OBF blog
(and via Twitter):


http://news.open-bio.org/news/2015/03/sadly-obf-not-accepted-for-gsoc-2015/


I expect the BioJava team will be discussing any suitable
umbrella groups to contact about taking on a BioJava linked
project…


Also as an Open Source project, there is nothing to stop you
contributing outside of GSoC (but we can’t pay you).
