We just wrapped up our third
Summer of Code, and as with 2006 we
invited mentors from all successful organizations to Google for our annual Mentor Summit. We
spent all day Saturday with our colleagues from the open source community sharing knowledge to
improve Summer of Code, fostering collaboration and, of course, having fun! Our attendees
proposed and led sessions, unconference style, from "How Do You Transfer an Itch?"
to "The Stick, the Carrot and Sushi." Marty once again treated everyone to a day of free
association and tinker toys in Casablanca.
Here's the obligatory group
photo, and as you can see we've picked up a few
more friends since last year.
You might also want to check out some pre and post summit pics from Bart,
Seb and
Wolf.
Congratulations once again to all of our students and mentors for another
stellar
showing in Summer of Code. Keep your eye on the program blog in the coming weeks
for notes from the mentor summit and more success stories from our students and mentoring
organizations.
