+## Google Summer of Code
+
+**This year the Scala team applied again for the [Google Summer of
+  Code](https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/)
+  program to work with enthusiastic students on challenging Scala
+  projects**
+
+This page provides a list of project ideas. The suggestions are only a
+starting point for students. We expect students to explore the ideas
+in much more detail, preferably with their own suggestions and
+detailed plans on how they want to proceed. Don't feel constrained by
+the provided list! We welcome any of your own challenging ideas, but
+make sure that the proposed project satisfies the [main
+requirements](#requirements-and-guidelines) mentioned below.
+
+### How to get involved
+
+The best place to propose and discuss your proposals is our
+["contributors"](http://contributors.scala-lang.org/)
+discussion forum. This way you will get quickly responses from the whole
+Scala community.
+
+### Previous Summer of Code
+
+We encourage you to have a look at our
+[2018](http://scala-lang.org/gsoc/2018/),
+[2017](http://scala-lang.org/gsoc/2017/),
+[2016](http://scala-lang.org/gsoc/2016/),
+[2015](http://scala-lang.org/gsoc/2015/),
+[2014](http://scala-lang.org/gsoc/2014/),
+[2013](http://www.scala-lang.org/news/2013/03/20/gsoc13.html),
+[2012](http://www.scala-lang.org/gsoc2012#),
+[2011](http://www.scala-lang.org/gsoc2011#),
+[Summer of Code 2010](http://www.scala-lang.org/gsoc2010#)
+pages to get an idea on what we and you can expect while working on Scala.
+
+## Project Ideas
+
+Here are some project ideas. The list is non-binding and any reasonable
+project related to Scala that is proposed by a student will be thoroughly
+reviewed.
+
+### Project name
+
+Project description.
+
+Link to the corresponding code repository, if relevant.
+
+Supervised by @username.
+
+## Requirements and Guidelines
+
+### General Student Application Requirements
+
+This is the seventh time the Scala project has applied to the Summer of
+Code, and from previous years’ experience, increased popularity of the
+language and stories of other mentor organizations we expect a high
+number of applications. First, be aware of the following:
+
+*   Make sure that you understand, fulfill and agree to the general
+    [Google Summer of Code rules](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/rules/)
+*   The work done during GSoC requires some discipline as
+    you have to plan your day-to-day activity by
+    yourself. Nevertheless, you can expect regular contact with your
+    mentors both via the usual means of communication for you project
+    as well as personal guidance via email, chat or phone. The mentor is
+    there for you in case you get stuck or need some guidance during your 3 month coding project.
+*   The [official SoC timetable](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/#timeline)
+    mentions May 14 as the official start of coding. If you
+    have time, you are encouraged to research your proposals even
+    before that (and definitely learn the basics of Scala, if you
+    haven't done that already).
+
+### Student Application Guidelines
+
+*   Student proposals should be very specific. We want to see evidence
+    that you can succeed in the project. Applications with one-liners
+    and general descriptions definitely won't make the cut.
+*   Because of the nature of our projects students must have some
+    knowledge of the Scala language. Applicants with Scala programming
+    experience will be preferred. Alternatively, experience with
+    functional programming could suffice, but in your application we
+    want to see evidence that you can quickly be productive in Scala.
+*   You can think of Google Summer of Code as a kind of independent
+    internship. Therefore, we expect you to work full-time during the
+    duration. Applicants with other time commitments are unlikely to
+    be selected. From our previous experience we know that students'
+    finishing their studies (either Bachelor, Master of PhD) are
+    likely to be overwhelmed by their final work, so please don't be
+    too optimistic and carefully plan your time for the project.
+*   If you are unsure whether your proposal is suitable, feel free to
+    discuss it on our
+    ["contributors"](http://contributors.scala-lang.org/)
+    discussion forum. We have many community members on our mailing list
+    who will quickly answer any of your questions regarding the
+    project. Mentors are also constantly monitoring the mailing
+    list. Don't be afraid to ask questions. We’d love to help you out!
+
+### General Proposal Requirements
+
+The proposal will be submitted via the standard web-interface at
+[https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/),
+therefore plain text is the best way to go. We expect your application
+to be in the range of 700-1500 words. Anything less than that will
+probably not contain enough information for us to determine whether
+or not you are the right person for the job.
+
+Your proposal should contain at least the following information, but
+feel free to include anything that you think is relevant:
+
+*   Please include your name (weird as it may be, people do forget it)
+*   Title of your proposal
+*   Abstract of your proposal
+*   Detailed description of your idea including explanation on why it
+    is innovative (maybe you already have a prototype?), what
+    contribution do you expect to make to the Scala community and why
+    do you think your project is needed. A rough plan of your
+    development and possible architecture sketches.
+*   Description of previous work, existing solutions (links to
+    prototypes or references are more than welcome!)
+*   Write us about yourself and convince that you are the right
+    person for the job (linking to your resume/CV is good but not
+    sufficient)
+    *   Mention the details of your academic studies, any previous
+        work, internships
+    *   Any relevant skills that will help you to achieve the goal
+        (programming languages, frameworks)?
+    *   Any previous open-source projects (or even previous GSoC) you
+        have contributed to?
+    *   Do you plan to have any other commitments during SoC that may
+        affect you work? Any vacations/holidays planned? Please be
+        specific as much as you can.
+*   If you apply to more than one GSoC project, especially if you also apply
+    for a project in another organization, specify which project you prefer.
+    In case two organizations choose to accept your applications,
+    we can then give you the project that is most important to you.
+    Preferring the project of another organization will *not* influence our
+    decision whether to accept your application.
+*   Contact details (**very important!**)
