Students Announced for Google Summer of Code 2013
The list of students selected for Google Summer of Code 2013 has been announced by Google. Among the 1192 students selected, two of them will be working on MuseScore this summer!
Andrey M. Tokarev will work on the MIDI import feature of MuseScore. He actually already started and you can check out his work in the nightlies and on the developer mailing list. Andrey is trig-ger on the IRC channel and he will be mentored by David Bolton (dbolton).
Kyle Messner will work on MuseScore and Emscripten. His goal is to run the MuseScore layouting and rendering engine in the browser without any plugin. He is Fritzendugan on the IRC channel and he will be mentored by Nicolas Froment (lasconic).
Now the community bonding period officially starts. Students will get to know their mentors and prepare for the program by reading documentation, hanging out in the IRC channel (#musescore on freenode.net) and familiarizing themselves with MuseScore. They will also introduce themself to the community on the forum or on the developer mailing list.
