[Events] Do you have a project you need help with? Apply to bring it to Grace Hopper Open Source Day

[Lukas Blakk]

Hello lovely people,

I am reaching out to you to see if you have any open source projects needing contributors that you could bring to the Minneapolis, MN area on October 5th 2013 for Open Source Day at Grace Hopper. It's a day designed to bring women together to become more involved in the open source community.  If you don't have a project, please spread the word to your networks. We are looking to recruit a diverse collection of open source projects. You can help us by inviting those organizations you feel would be a good fit to complete the application. 

We typically have 200 motivated participants from industry and academia join us for the day.  For many of these talented women, this is an introduction to the hackathon and open source experience.  Please take a look at last years Open Source Day, held in Baltimore, Maryland. http://gracehopper.org/2012/conference/grace-hopper-open-source-day/.  

For this event, we have a list of organizations who will bring an open source project with tasks to be done that day. The following link will direct you to  examples of projects from 2012: http://systers.org/systers-dev/doku.php/ghc12osdssf

Benefits for  organizations are:
 - visibility to your project to women engineers
 - project tasks completed during that day
 - new contributors to your project.

Organizations with open source projects may now apply to participate in this year's Open Source Day at Grace Hopper (October 5th, 2013, 10am - 5pm, Minneapolis):
