[Scummvm-devel] GSoC in 2018?

[John Willis]

Hi All,

 

Very happy to offer to mentor and/or help with admin/support this year.

 

I’ll also take a look over the ideas as I do think it is important we have a good range of achievable ideas.

 

Thanks,

 

John

Hi Eugene, hi everybody

 

I'm in favor of applying this year again. We can work on last year's list (http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Summer_of_Code/GSoC_Ideas_2017). Sludge engine and Supernova's first game are done, and the 2nd supernova game can be used as a task.

Of course, we have to check the list in order to remove the obsolete one (typically, I have no idea of the status of ICB for ResidualVM, and I don't know if it's still an option to get a student for Director).

 

My favorite task is the one about shaders/scalers. It's been lying there foreever, and could give us a really nice outcome.

 

The deadline for org application forms is in 2 weeks, so we really have to work on that if I'm not the only one thinking it's a good idea.

 

Oh, and I volunteer to be a mentor this year.

 

Do you want me to spend some time at looking if there are other low-hanging fruits we could find for potential mentors (like existing engines lying around, or source code availability for other games?)

 

Best regards,

Arnaud

Hi Team,

 

Should we apply for the GSoC this year? Do we have enough ideas and mentors?
