What is the Summer of Code?
The Summer of Code is a program in which student developers are provided with a stipend to create new open source programs or to help currently established projects.
Why is Google doing this?
Google believes that there are more Open Source Developers out in the world waiting to be discovered and that this program might help reveal who they are.
How does the program work?
Google has teamed up with a number of Open Source related organizations who have agreed to help with the Summer of Code. An applicant applies to work on a project for a given organization. That organization has a designated contact who can approve of the application, monitor the students progress and sign off that the applicant has completed their work as described in the application.
