Call for Debian projects and mentors in Google Summer of Code 2026
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512
Debian is applying as a mentoring organization for the Google Summer
of Code 2026[1].
This is a call for project proposals for the upcoming program. The
deadline for project submission is before February 3rd 2026 but
encouraged to do by January 19 2026.
== Proposing a Project ==
Add your project idea to the GSoC'26 Debian wiki [2], making sure you
complete all the fields given in the template. We require that the
proposed project has at least one mentor who is a Debian Developer.
If you need any help in drafting a proposal, feel free to drop an
email to outreach@debian.org.
== What is GSoC? ==
Google Summer of Code is an open source program in which new
contributors contribute to a Free Software Organization such as Debian
and receive a stipend from Google if the project is successful.
GSoC is a good way to get new (and old) contributors interested in the
parts of Debian that you consider important and to keep some of them
involved with Debian even after the program ends.
