Greetings Remy,
My name is Narek and I'd like to participate in the Fedora Hubs project in this
year's GSoC.
Short introduction:
I'm a Computational Sciences student at the American University of Armenia (sophomore
year). Have experience in native Android development and some machine-learning side
projects with Python (TensorFlow) and R. Aside from coding I can do translations (English,
Armenian, Russian), but I'd love to concentrate on software development since this
will be my first ever GSoC. I have used Fedora for quite some time, so I'm familiar
with the community and the project, and have briefly participated in testing and bug
triaging.
Do you have a spare minute so I can ask you a few questions on IRC? (about the project
needs, application process etc)
Hi Narek, welcome to the Fedora summer-coding mailing list for GSoC 2016! :)
Thanks for reaching out!
Yes, Fedora Hubs IS listed as a GSoC project. Whether or not we get a
slot for it will depend on a couple of things:
1) The number of mentors allocated to the project idea.
2) The number and strength of applicants we have applying for a slot.
3) The number of slots we are awarded by Google.
The best way to ensure that we DO get a slot for it is to follow the
procedure described at the bottom of the GSoC organization page.

You have now introduced yourself to the summer-coding mailing list, so
that's one item to take off the checklist. Next, you can join the
various IRC channels (#fedora-summer-coding, #fedora-hubs, and
#fedora-apps), and then work with mentors to figure out your next steps.
Additionally, there is a post on the Fedora Community Blog that should
help answer many of your questions about what to do next.

We look forward to getting to know you!
