(Markdown for links)
<code>
Post on our [mailing list](https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/octave-maintainers) or chat on [IRC](https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#octave) or [Discourse](https://octave.discourse.group/) to get feedback on your ideas and help with any questions.
Familiarize yourself with using and building Octave, and with any other skills needed to carry out your proposed project. Demonstrate this familiarity by contributing [bug fixes](https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=octave) or [patches](https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?group=octave) before the end of the application period.
Complete your GSoC application as per Google guidelines.
For more details, please see the [Octave Wiki](https://wiki.octave.org/Summer_of_Code_-_Getting_Started).

Finally, we organize an annual developers' summit, OctConf, and have in previous years provided support for GSoC students to attend and present. We also hold monthly online developer meetings to discuss Octave's direction and future activities, to which GSoC students would be invited. Such meetings strengthen relationships between community members and the new students.

=== How will you keep students involved with your community after GSoC? (1000 chars) ===
We will typically merge their code into our codebase during or soon after the summer. GNU Octave is a project with many tester-users who give constant feedback on new features and report bugs. As participants in the mailing lists and bug tracker, students get the feeling of doing something that is useful to the community from the very start.
Many of our GSoC students use Octave during the academic year or in their professional careers. As such, they are prone to stay involved with its development, even if at a lower level than during the summer.
A number of GSoC alumni have continued making regular contributions to GNU Octave, including volunteering to serve as GSoC mentors themselves, and many remain available to help with any problems related to the code they wrote for the project.
=== How many potential mentors have agreed to mentor this year? ===
11-15
=== Has your org been accepted as a mentoring org in Google Summer of Code before? ===
Yes.
=== How many students did you org accept for 2020? ===
1
=== How many of your org's 2020 students have been active in the community in the past 60 days? ===
0
=== For each year your organization has participated, provide the counts of successful and total students. ===
2020 1/1
2019 0/0
2018 3/3
2017 4/4
2016 5/5
2014 3/3
We have a nice trajectory mentoring projects since 2011 (both as an independent organization and as part of GNU). [http://wiki.octave.org/Summer_of_Code This page] lists the successful projects that have been executed under our mentoring.
=== If your org has applied for GSoC before but not been accepted, select the years ===
2012, 2013, 2015
