[xwiki-devs] [GSoC] Pencils down, submit your evaluations to Google, and your status to the XWiki Community

Hello GSoC students and mentors, Today is the firm pencils down deadline (in about 3 hours). What does this mean? First, your success regarding the GSoC project is supposed to be judged on the work done so far, and you're supposed to send to Google all the code that you wrote up until this date. (code submission will begin on August 31) Second, both students and mentors have to submit the final evaluations before Friday, 19:00 UTC. Without the evaluations, the project will be automatically considered failed, so don't forget to submit them on time, ideally as soon as possible, not right before the deadline. In general, I feel that all the projects have been successful, and are good candidates for integration into the platform shortly. So, even if the GSoC coding period is officially over, don't forget that one of the main goals of the program is to introduce students to open source communities on the long term. Thus, I'd be more than happy to see you continue to be members of the XWiki open source community, hoping that we made a good impression and made you feel welcome here. A project is never "done", there's always room for improvements, new features, maintenance, bug fixing, documentation and so on. So, congratulations on your work, I hope you liked doing it, and that you enjoyed the interaction with your mentors and with the XWiki community. How to get out the code that you wrote? Go to your local Git repository, and execute the following command (use your own name for the --author parameter): git log --patch "--before=2012-08-20T19:00z" --author=sergiu > SergiuDumitriu-xwiki.patch -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
