Hi Boost community,

this year again we applied to the GSoC programm, Google Summer of Code. We
hope to be as successfull as usual. I'm taking care of the admin work again
this year. I completed an application for Boost on the Google website. It
is somehow similar to our successfull applications from previous years.

What we need from the community now is the following:

1) if you want to be a backup admin (I will need maybe one or two extra
names at most), please let me know and I'll send you an invite.

2) if you wish to be a mentor, please let us know now and if possible on
this mailing list so that students will be aware of it too. Don't forget to
put the [gsoc2019] tag in the header of your email.

You can write your proposals on this wiki:
https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code:-2019
Ideally, we want to see many proposals before beginning of next week.

3) if you are a student and wants to participate, it's about time to speak
loudly on the mailing list to pair with a potential mentor. The sooner the
better. You can find ideas from previous years here:

Happy coding.
David
