Sujet: [Tails-project] Remote internships in Free and Open Source Software / Application deadline 24th march 2015 Re: Fwd: Help spread the word about the new round!
Some more info about this:

Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is software that gives the user the
freedom to use, share, study, and improve it. FOSS contributors believe
that this is the best way to develop software because it benefits
society, creates a fun collaborative community around a project, and
allows anyone to make innovative changes that reach many people.

Google Summer of Code
=====================

Google Summer of Code is a global program that offers students stipends
to write code for projects from 137 participating FOSS organizations.
Applicants must be available for full-time, 40-hours a week,
internships. Participants work remotely from home, while getting
guidance from an assigned mentor and collaborating within their
project’s community. The application deadline for Google Summer of Code
is March 27 and the program dates are May 25 to August 21. The stipend
for the program is $5,500 (USD).

Outreachy
=========

In an effort to improve diversity in FOSS, a number of organizations are
offering Outreachy internships through a program organized by Software
Freedom Conservancy. These internships are open to women (cis and
trans), trans men, and genderqueer people. The internships have the same
structure, the same stipend and similar program dates. The application
deadline for Outreachy is March 24 and the program dates are May 25 to
August 25. Unlike in Google Summer of Code, participants do not need to
be students and non-coding projects are available. In addition to
coding, projects include such tasks as graphic design, user experience
design, documentation, bug triage and community engagement.

Apply
=====

To apply for either program, you need to connect with a participating
organization early, select a project you want to work on, create a
project plan, and make a few relevant contributions.

The mentorship opportunities are also available throughout the year for
anyone interested in getting started contributing to FOSS outside of the
internship program.

Please consider applying for Google Summer of Code or Outreachy,
encourage someone else to apply, or help spread the word by forwarding
this message to any interested university and community groups.
