[cfe-dev] LLVM participation in GSoC and similar programs roundtable

Mon Nov 18 02:59:25 PST 2019

I am already pinging the Apple folks from the previous years for updates on their projects (i.e. if we should move their projects to the 2020 list or mark it as completed). I’ll update the project page with their replies as soon as I get them.

I started writing some proposal check-list but it doesn’t seem as useful as just showing off good proposals from previous years. Maybe we should just make a short check-list of things we expect from their proposals and then highlight some proposals from previous years. The previous proposals are anyway publicly available and I know GSoC students look at them, so I think we might as well optimise the whole process and just directly link a few good ones. I’ll make a Phab review for that and then we can see if that’s something we want to do.
