Hi

KDE is participating in Google Code-In, which is an initiative by
Google to initiate pre-university students from ages 13 to 18 into
open source contribution. Unlike GSoC, there are both coding and
non-coding tasks. So participants who do not know how to code could
contribute documentation, translations, bug triaging etc!

Here's the dot.kde.org announcement of KDE's participation:

Here's a link for further information:

Here's KDE's proposed list of tasks:

And here's to show that India has done really well in GSoC, and we
need to do better than that in Google Code-In:

Please let your young friends know. Also, there are prizes involved,
although that's not why we do it.

@Prospective mentors: Hurry up! You have to sign up and submit tasks
before Monday!!

Regards
Akarsh
