[lime-users] Fwd: Freifunk is part of GSoC 2021!

Freifunk (a huge German wireless community network) has been accepted in the Google Summer of Code for 2021. Even if Google is organising it, this is a great opportunity for starting contributing to LibreMesh (and earn some $$$ while doing it) :D This year, the requirements for who can participate as a student are looser (looks like you just have to be an over18 student) and the work load is smaller (but also the salary is accordingly smaller, between $1500 and $3300 depending on where you live), so that I suppose we'll be able to have more students. What's important now is to update the projects that the LibreMesh project/community asks the students to code on, so that their work can be useful. The current list of projects is here: https://projects.freifunk.net/ and it can be modified with pull requests here: https://github.com/freifunk/projects.freifunk.net-contents Clearly, either this mailing list or the Element/IRC channel are perfect places for defining new projects ideas :D Ciao!
