Open Source Mentorship?

I saw that OCaml was part of GSoC (and other open source mentorship programs) a few years or so back.

Does that still exist in any form now?

I’m a beginner in OCaml (and functional programming) and am looking for some sort of mentorship/program that would enable me to make open source contributions.

Thanks!

Yes that’s right. @gridbugs is mentoring some people on Outreachy this year as far as I am aware.

Hi @Prince_Kumar (OCaml Community Outreachy Coordinator here)

I’m happy to hear that you would like to contribute to some open-source OCaml projects! The OCaml community currently participates in Outreachy. It may be a little late this round to get involved but we will most likely be participating in the next round at the end of the year, and if you’re eligible please do apply!

If you’re interested to hear more about this, we have our demo day tomorrow for the current round and you are more than welcome to hop on the call!
