Xen Project and Outreachy

The Xen Project Advisory Board will be sponsoring two interns for Round 11 of Outreachy (formerly known as the GNOME Outreach Program) which runs from Dec 7, 2015 to March 7, 2016. Outreachy helps people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software get involved. Our goal is to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in the Xen Project. It is an expansion of the very successful GNOME Outreach Program for Women and we are running the program in conjunction with GNOME and other prominent open source projects.

Information For Applicants

Eligibility

The program is open internationally to women (cis and trans), trans men, and genderqueer people. Additionally, it's open to residents and nationals of the United States of any gender who are Black/African American, Hispanic/Latin@, American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander (see outreachy/about).

How To Apply

The official program period for Outreachy Round 11 begins Dec 7. Please fill our your application and complete your Xen Project patch by November 2. Applicants that do not complete the first patch will not be considered for an internship. Please take a look at our application FAQ for more info on how to fill our your initial application. Applicants will be notified in April if they have been accepted.

If you are interested in being a Xen Project intern, please:

  • Join the xen-devel@, mirageos-devel@, ... mailing list depending on the project you choose (check the table below).
  • Get yourself a suitable starter project (see Requirement to Make a Small Code Contribution and table below).
  • Join the #outreachy IRC channel on irc.gnome.org for questions related to the program and to connect with other participants
  • Join the #xen-opw IRC channel on irc.freenode.net for meetings between applicants and mentors (note: we may change the channel name later to reflect the name change)
  • Read our instructions for applying, and apply by November 2nd 2015 !
  • Ask one of our friendly developers on for a bite size bug or work item to fulfil the Make a Small Contribution Requirement. This can be reviewing somebody's code, submitting a patch, or similar and will need to be done by November 2nd 2015.
