Outreachy (formerly FOSS Outreach Program for Women (OPW) and Project Ascend Alumni)
Please see the [https://www.gnome.org/outreachy/ Outreachy homepage] for an introduction to the program.
Round 12 is coming up soon. It's too early to send patches to the outreachy kernel mailing list, but please consider working through the other parts of the tutorial if you are intersted in applying.
We are looking for round 12 [:OutreachySponsor:funding sponsors] and Linux kernel [:OutreachyMentor:mentors]. Please see the linked FAQ pages if you want to help out.
Welcome Outreachy applicants! Our [:OutreachySponsor:round 11 sponsors] have generiously donated funds for internships for women, genderqueer, genderfluid, or genderfree people, and residents and nationals of the United States of any gender who are Black/African American, Hispanic/Latino, American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander to work on the Linux kernel. The kernel is the most basic layer of the Linux operating system. It encompasses many things: hardware drivers, filesystems, security, task scheduling, and much more.
How to apply
The application period for Outreachy Round 12 is February 9 to March 22. Please fill your [https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen#Application_Process application] by March 22, and complete your kernel patch by March 22 also (7pm UTC in both cases). Applicants that do not complete the first patch will not be considered for an internship. Please take a look at our [:OutreachyApply:application FAQ] for more info on how to fill out your application.
If you are interested in being a Linux kernel intern, please:
Join the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/outreachy-kernel outreachy-kernel mailing list]
- Join the #opw IRC channel on irc.gnome.org
- Join the #kernel-outreachy IRC channel on irc.oftc.net
Read our [:OutreachyApply:instructions for applying], and apply by March 22.
Use our [:Outreachyfirstpatch:tutorial] to send in your first kernel patch by March 22.
Participating Linux kernel projects
Applicants for all projects should have basic experience with C or C++ and boolean algebra. Optionally, we would love it if you have basic operating system knowledge, know your way around a Linux/UNIX command line, and/or know the revision system called git. Please note that these three skills can be learned during the internship.
Some projects may have small tasks you can complete as part of the application process. Do not start on these tasks until after you complete the [:Outreachyfirstpatch:first patch tutorial] and Greg Kroah-Hartman has accepted at least ten of your cleanup patches and two of your patchsets. In order to ensure applicants aren't working on the same task, we need your help in coordinating who is working on what task. Please see the [:OutreachyTasks:Outreachy tasks page] for details before starting on a task!
Round 12 projects
Round 11 projects are available [:OutreachyRound11:here]. For each project, if you click on the proposer's name, you may find more information.
