Introduction to Google Summer of Code
This document discusses Google Summer of Code, including how to get started in the program by assessing one's skills, reviewing project ideas, discussing ideas with mentors, learning how to set up projects locally, and the most widely used version control systems. It emphasizes beginning the process early, not underestimating one's abilities, and being willing to modify ideas based on feedback. Students are advised to search for organizations matching their skills and interests, approach mentors through mailing lists or IRC, and not simply copy project ideas but suggest their own implementations and roadmaps.
