[Scummvm-devel] Fwd: [GSoC Testing] GSoC wants you! Goodies involved!

[Max Horn]

Hi everybody,
this year Google wants to test the GSoC software *before* the actual  
GSoC, over a period of 2 weeks. They need volunteers who will act as  
"virtual" admins, mentors, students. To look for issues and report  
them; and ideally, to also provide fixes (they promise fun goodies as  
reward ;).

Both GSoC veterans and people who never participated in GSoC in any  
way are welcome. This is a great opportunity to get the system to know  
if you haven't seen it already.

Cheers,
Max
