Heads up Students: OLSR.org / Freifunk Google Summer of Code projects are open!

OLSR.org is (amongst other networks) heavily used by the Freifunk networks in Germany. We are lucky that Freifunk applied as a mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code (GSoc). You can find details on the Freifunk GSoC here.

So, you can apply for some of our projects or propose your own project in order to enhance OLSR.

What do you need to do?

1. get in contact with us on our mailing lists: olsr-dev@lists.olsr.org
2. think of a cool project to enhance OLSR and discuss it with us or ...chose from a list of open topics
3. register at the GSoC site as a student no later than April 9th and apply. If we believe that we can support your idea, we will approve your project
   
4. code

5. collect the payment: Google pays you for contributing code to an open source project. Everybody is happy

Please take a look at the timeline.
Thanks go to Mario Behling for applying and managing the GSoC Freifunk project.
