[Biopython-dev] Fwd: [Open-bio-l] Let's get started with Google Summer of Code 2016

[Eric Talevich]

I'm happy to volunteer as a mentor this year. Is there a way to register
that for OBF's initial application?

For those who missed it, the front page for OBF GSoC 2016 is apparently not
on biopython.org but on GitHub:
http://obf.github.io/GSoC/

And the ideas page is here:
http://obf.github.io/GSoC/ideas/

New ideas can be submitted via pull request:
