  Summer of Code - Get Paid to Work on Open Source This Summer

  Google Summer of Code is an exciting opportunity for students to
"intern" with an open source project for a summer. The FreeBSD Project,
as one of the most successful and oldest open source projects, is an
excellent place to do this internship. Founded in 1993, the project now
consists of several hundred "committers" and tens of thousands of
contributors. FreeBSD is the foundation for many commercial products,
including Apple's Mac OS X, NetApp's OnTap/GX, Juniper's JunOS, as well
countless other products, from Cisco anti-spam appliances to Isilon's
cluster storage hardware, and is widely used in the Internet Service
Provider and corporate IT worlds. Many of these sponsors participate
daily in the FreeBSD community, and students have the opportunity to
develop software ideas in an exciting environment with many real world
applications, and under the mentorship of experienced developers.

  After the summer ends, many of our students are sponsored by Google
or the FreeBSD Foundation to attend operating systems and open source
conferences to present on their work, and a significant number go on to
become FreeBSD developers. It's also a great job networking opportunity!

  There are many dozens of example project ideas listed on the FreeBSD
web site here:

  http://www.freebsd.org/projects/summerofcode.html

  and for many other open source organizations as well:

  Some of the example projects include working on embedded operating
systems, unix filesystems, network performance and implementing new
network protocols, and more.  Most sample project ideas include
developers you can contact to discuss a proposal, and we recommend
doing so in advance of submitting a proposal.  Strong C language skills
are recommended for most projects.
