 Google is running their great Summer of Code (http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html) program again this year, and Horde is again a mentoring organization. This page is a guide to participating with Horde, and the place to collect ideas for projects. It is mainly for those with project ideas and those interested in participating as a student. If you'd like to help out by mentoring, send a note to Horde's mentor coordinator, Chuck Hagenbuch (chuck at horde dot org).
 
 ++ Guidelines for students
 
-The ideas listed on this page are just that - ideas. They are deliberately somewhat vague, because you are meant to fill in the details. Last year there were too many proposals that simply cut-n-pasted the text from our ideas page. ''Don't do that!'' If you do, you will be tossed out very early in the application sorting process.

Drupal is one of the other mentoring organizations with a nice HOWTO written up; rather than paraphrase them, go check it out: http://drupal.org/node/59037. The same kinds of things apply to Horde.
 
 +++ What requirements are there?
 
-The Student Faq (http://code.google.com/soc/studentfaq.html) is your first stop for requirements. In addition to what Google says, Horde would like the following from applicants (credit goes to the Drupal folks for their nice writeups - http://drupal.org/node/59963 and http://drupal.org/node/59037):

 # This should be your main activity for the summer. If you expect to do a Summer of Code project while holding down a full time job, we respectfully disagree with your optimism.
 # You will be working in the Horde CVS repository. This means learning to use CVS, and learning it at the beginning of your project. It is not a last-minute thing.
 # You should expect to correspond with your mentor at least weekly. Less, and we'll wonder if you've fallen into something.
