We are pleased to announce that Stratosphere got accepted to Google Summer of Code 2014 as a mentoring organization. This means that we will host a bunch of students to conduct projects within Stratosphere over the summer. Read more on the GSoC manual for students and the official FAQ. Students can improve their coding skills, learn to work with open-source projects, improve their CV and get a nice paycheck from Google.

If you are an interested student, check out our idea list in the wiki. It contains different projects with varying ranges of difficulty and requirement profiles. Students can also suggest their own projects.

We welcome students to sign up at our developer mailing list to discuss their ideas. Applying students can use our wiki (create a new page) to create a project proposal. We are happy to have a look at it.
