Google Summer Of Code

[Piotr Shipilo]

Hello! My name is Piotr. I have some any questions about Google Summer
of Code. I was found very interesting projects for Amarok on KDE GSoC
Project page (http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2012/Ideas). Very much
Amarok projects required knowlege in C++ and QT (like for us). Can I
work together on a project with a friend who signs up to participate
with me. What is your attitude to work together as a team on the
project.

Thank you for your attention. Waiting for your reply.

Unfortunately that is not allowed by Google's rules for Summer of Code:

Hi Piotr,

It's unfortunately not allowed to do group projects in GSoC, not in
KDE and not in any of the other organisations.
KDE is going to run Season of KDE again however where this is
possible. Season of KDE works similarly to GSoC but the projects are
usually smaller and students do not get paid. There is however going
to be some swag.

Cheers
Lydia
