Fedora Mentored Projects
Mission & Purpose
The Fedora Mentored Projects Working Group coordinates Fedora's participation in Outreachy and Google Summer of Code (GSoC). We review project proposals from community mentors, allocate program funding, and support mentors and interns throughout their engagement. Since 2005, Fedora contributors have mentored dozens of interns across projects ranging from fullstack web development to AI-assisted packaging tools to community outreach campaigns.
