I don't have a student visa unfortunately. Time to build an open source portfolio and get in line for GSoC... Any suggestions? I have a few small useful scripts that I've written over the years but they're not of good quality to release. Should I work on those or find some project to work on?

Here's a list of last summer's mentoring organizations: http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/program/accepted_orgs/google/gsoc2010 http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/program/accepted_orgs/google... I haven't done it myself, so I don't know if my advice is any good, but I'd suggest picking one that interests you and getting started fixing bugs as soon as possible. And when you have a chance, double-check that they intend to take part this summer, too. A friend of mine did GSoC a few summers ago. If you like, send me an email and I'll put you in touch.

  Browsing through that list now... I'm not sure but I think someone from my uni did GSoC last year, I'll try finding out about that first. Thanks anyway!
