Hi everyone,
I tried this year for gsoc and I had a very good proposal (told by mentor) but due to lack of slot I didnot get selected. I want to participate in open source and earn at the same time, can you please tell me other programes like gsoc I can apply for.

Hi,

Season of docs is for technical writers, not coders.

You might look at Outreach.

SOCIS is also an alternative but is limited to space science and astronomy and has very few projects. The applications for 2019 are closed, I suppose.

Cheers

I would encourage you to consider a different approach.  Many people who contribute to open source voluntarily first find (even greater) paid opportunities later.  There’s a variety of reasons for this but one is likely that it shows independent motivation and a desire to learn on the part of the individual.  It looks better on a resume and can be exceptionally educational.

I know this from personal experience and it’s something I take into consideration when I’m reviewing applicants professionally for internships or jobs too.

Cheers!
Sean

Take a look at developer Student clubs. You are required to find a problem and solve it by the end of the year (similar to a capstone project). 

The program is currently available in India, Africa, Indonesia. We are just launching it in Canada, Singapore and Europe. Here is the link for more information: bit.ly/dsccanada
