Google embraces open source for 10th year of Summer of Code
================================================================================
For many, open source is believed to be the future. If you aren't familiar, in basic terms, open source is software that is accompanied by free to distribute source code. By having the source code, users can see the guts of the program they are using. This is in contrast to closed source software, like most of Microsoft's, where the code is hidden to retain intellectual property and make a profit.

Neither school of thought is wrong -- you can't fault a company for trying to make money by going closed source. Bill Gates would not have become the richest man in the world if Microsoft's software portfolio was open. However, not everyone lives for money. Open source allows even the poorest people to potentially access quality software at no charge. Today, Google announces it is looking for college students to work on open source projects for its 10th year of Summer of Code.
What exactly is Summer of Code? Google gives the following description:
> Google Summer of Code is a global program that offers post-secondary student developers ages 18 and older stipends to write code for various open source software projects. We have worked with open source, free software, and technology-related groups to identify and fund projects over a three month period. Since its inception in 2005, the program has brought together over 7,500 successful student participants and over 7,000 mentors from over 100 countries worldwide to produce over 50 million lines of code. Through Google Summer of Code, accepted student applicants are paired with a mentor or mentors from the participating projects, thus gaining exposure to real-world software development scenarios and the opportunity for employment in areas related to their academic pursuits. In turn, the participating projects are able to more easily identify and bring in new developers. Best of all, more source code is created and released for the use and benefit of all.
"If you're a university student looking to earn real-world experience this summer, we hope you’ll consider coding for a cool open source project with Google Summer of Code. We're celebrating the 10th year of the program in 2014, and we’d love to see more student applicants than ever before. In 2013 we accepted almost 1,200 students and we’re planning to accept 10 percent more this year", [says][1] Carol Smith, Google Open Source team.
Smith further says, "you can submit proposals on our website starting now through Friday, March 21 at 12:00pm PDT. Get started by reviewing the ideas pages of the 190 open source projects in this year's program, and decide which projects you're interested in. There are a limited number of spots, and writing a great project proposal is essential to being selected to the program -- so be sure to check out the [Student Manual][2] for advice".
Google has been using Linux in both Android and Chromebooks, so it is nice to see the search-giant giving back to the open source community. This gives college students an opportunity to make a name for themselves by creating or working on an epic piece of open source software. Even if the software doesn't light the world on fire, at least they tried and learned something.
Are you a college student? Will you sign up? Tell me in the comments.

谷歌为编程之夏10周年拥抱开源
================================================================================
很多人相信开源就是未来。如果你还不熟悉开源的话，用基本术语来讲，它是伴随着免费分发源代码的软件。一旦获取源代码，用户可以看到他们正在使用的程序内幕。开源软件与闭源软件截然相反，就像微软的大部分产品，其代码被隐藏起来以保护知识产权和赚取收益。
![](http://betanews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/open-source-300x270.jpeg)
学校里的想法都不是错的（这句帮忙意译下，3q）—— 你不能挑剔一家公司试图通过闭源代码来赚钱。如果微软的软件是开源的，比尔
盖茨也不会成为世界上最富有的人。然而，并不是每个人都为钱而活。开源使得最贫穷的人都有可能无偿地获取优质软件。今天，谷歌宣布要寻找大学学生为其编程之夏的10周年进行开源软件工作。
编程之夏到底是什么？Google给出了如下描述：
> Google编程之夏是一项全球的编程活动，旨在为18周岁以上的大专学生开发者提供奖学金来为各种开源软件项目编写代码。在过去三个月内，我们致力于开源软件、自由软件和与技术相关的群组来甄选和投资项目。自从2005年启动以来，已有来自全球100多个国家的超过7500名学生和超过7000名导师成功参与到这个项目中，产生了5000多万行代码。通过编程之夏，已录取的学生应用会配备至少一位来自参赛项目的导师，从而获取接触到现实世界中软件开发的场景和与学术研究领域相关的工作机会。反过来，参赛项目可以更容易被甄选，并引进给新的开发者。最重要的是，更多的源代码为所有人的使用和收益被创造和发布。
“如果你是一名希望在这个夏天获得现实世界经验的大学生，我们希望你可以考虑为谷歌编程之夏里某个很酷的开源项目编写代码。我们会在2014年庆祝这个项目10周年，并期待看到比以往更多的学生参与。在2013年，我们接收了几乎1200名学生，今年我们打算多接收10%的学生”[1]，谷歌开源项目组的卡罗尔史密斯[如是说][1]。
史密斯进一步表示，“从现在到周五（三月21号的下午12点），你都可以在我们的网站上提交申请。从审查今年活动中的190个开源项目的创意页面开始，然后决定你对哪些项目感兴趣。可选择的项目数量有限，为所选择的项目写一份精彩的项目建议书是必要的——所以一定要检查[学生手册][2]中的意见”。
谷歌一直在安卓设备和谷歌笔记本使用Linux系统，所以很高兴看到通过搜索巨头对开源社区的反馈（这句翻译得难受，优化下，3q）。这个活动给了大学生们通过创建或致力于某些史诗般开源软件的一部分的良机。即便这个软件不能改变改变世界，但至少他们尝试和学到了一些东西。
你是一名大学生吗？你会参加吗？在评论中告诉我吧！
