Re: [soc-dev] Private messages
Project-specific discussion should (must?) happen on project dev lists. Getting some hint in the form of an occasional summary or even having the conversation cc'd on this list is handy and strongly recommended. At very least, it would be very good if we could know that these conversations are happening and where we can go to join in on them if we'd like.

You're absolutely correct though about the general mentor population evaluating students. Copying the conversation here, IMHO, improves the chances for quality students to get evaluated higher.

FWIW, there are numerous conversations happening on the Code Recommenders dev-list. They've done a fantastic job of attracting the attention of students.

Hi Wayne,

I think when students discussing the GSoC ideas, we should encourage (and/or mandate) students to discuss them in the respective Project List and cc the soc-dev@ list as well since it provides opportunity to mentors to evaluate students. 

Otherwise we might not aware about all the communication taken place between students and committers.

WDYT?

Thanks and Regards,
Harshana

Hey folks.

Please encourage your student prospects to discuss GSoC project in a public forum. Preferably this one. When you receive private email (I've already received a few), please direct the student to this mailing list.
