GNURadio and Google Summer of Code

GNU Radio
1

Hi Eric,

Do you have a specific template for the application process or can I use
the
sample template given on the google summer of code webpage?

Also, do I just signup selecting the GNU Project in the application
process?
(There is nothing else which is listed in relation to GNUradio)

Thanks,

Naveen

"Summer of Code 2006 is a program that offers student developers

stipends to create new open source programs or to help currently

established projects. Google will be working with a variety of open

source, free software, and technology-related groups to identify and

fund several hundred projects over a three-month period."

The GNU Project is registered as a mentor organization, so if there is

any student who would want to do some a work on GNURadio, it probably

wouldn’t be a bad idea to apply. There are already many project

suggestions, but maybe you get lucky…? The deadline is May 8.

Looks like a good program. I’m signed up to mentor, and Matt will back
me
up.

In the suggested projects department:

  • Build decent GUI around one or more GNU Radio apps. This could
    include
    a basic AM/FM/NBFM receiver/scanner.

  • Build decent GUI for an “amateur transceiver”. Including features
    such
    as Tx/Rx frequency split for talking on repeaters, etc. Could
    optionally
    handle digital voice, etc. We’ve got most of the guts working, but no
    GUI.

  • RFID

  • Pretty much anything anybody wants to work on, e.g., signal
    processing,
    new mods/demods, …

Eric is away right now, and only has intermittent email access. I think
all you need is to use the standard Summer of Code forms, and just talk
about what you intend to do.

I think the deadline is soon, so good luck.

Hi Naveen,

There’s no special template.
I’ve seen you proposal and have reviewed it.
