Feedback from OFC
- Carefully filter out wannabes and select really good students by giving them small but real tasks (probably some bugs to fix)
- Student should have some simple plan and mentor should ping him periodically
- ofc, our wallet was quite small compared to Google's one, but it was still useful, and finally we've used about $700 per student
- using spamming on global (Hacker News, reddit, slashdot, some mailing lists, subject mailing lists) and on local (probably on foreign languages) - is a key for a broad attention and paycheck
- ofc by spamming I mean writing short still useful articles
- and using this you probably can cover even more audience than GSoC
- as a bonus - you can invite all people, not just only students
- also even if it fails - it is useful experience and raises your chances on the next GSoC
