General guidelines

GSoC 2017 timeline and students manual
General expectations from students in the GSoC program
Some advices on how to write proposals (written with the Mailman project in mind, but generally applicable)
We also expect from students that they are comfortable with Python (intermediate level) and have basic knowledge of Git.

Contact

You can reach us by:

sending an email to ete-gsoc-mentors@googlegroups.com (general inquires and private communication with GSoC mentors)
GitHub issues. Preferred for discussing specific features and development plans.

We also have a Gitter but not every mentor uses it (frequently at least). For most things email and GitHub issues are the recommended way.

Getting started with ETE

Try first as an user: If you are new to ETE, download and install ETE. Go through the tutorial, tools documentation and cookbooks. Learn how to use it and get your hands dirty with the examples.
Learn how to contribute to ETE: Read these guidelines and try to make small changes to the main code or documentation. You can even try to solve any open issue. Use git to track your changes and, if those are relevant, try sending a Pull Request.
