Mentored Projects

  • Fedora Project is paticipating in Outreachy May 2022 cohort. Projects are listed on the Outreachy website.
  • Unfortunately, Fedora Project was not accepted in GSoC 2022. We missed the requirement of having at least 3 projects listed even before the org is accepted. We have readjusted our timeline to gather more projects for the next round.
  • We had our first Fedora Mentor Summit on April 1st and 2nd. It was a successful event and video recordings are already posted on the Fedora Project YouTube channel.
