Marcos Dione#Google is paying #GSoC students via Payoneer and it seems like it's hell to setup:

On the GUADEC 2024 I was in a BoF about openQA, where they use visual analysis of the screen content to do unit/CI test on GUI apps.
This inspired me to do the same thing with print output, to test print filters, so that we cannot only test for crashes and errors but also actual functionality. So I posted this as a #GSoC project and now have a contributor enthusiastically working on it.

You are absolutely right, @tsdgeos I have never attended an aKademy conference, but several GUADECs (no, I am not a GNOMie, but having been in Canonical's desktop team for so long time ...) and the stuctures of GUADECs and aKademys are similar, some days with talks, then some days with BoFs, and I had learned many interesting things there.

Durchmarsch Richtung Mars: ISS-Robotik-Experiment Surface Avatar erfolgreich abgeschlossen
Mit vier Robotern und einer Live-Schalte zur Internationalen Raumstation ISS herrschte ungewöhnlicher Betrieb auf dem „irdischen Mars“ des DLR in Oberpfaffenhofen. Am 24. Juli 2025 führte das Surface-Avatar-Team das letzte und bisher anspruchsvollste Experiment der Mission Surface Avatar vor.
Konrad 'ktoso' MalawskiI really enjoy doing #gsoc summer of code every year, there's a lot of talented and passionate folks out there, and it's always a joy to work with them over the summer :-) Hope y'all are enjoying GSoC with Swift <3 #swiftlang
Xavier GóngoraJust wrapped up the first half of my GSoC project on improving name resolution in Liquid Haskell (LH)! It’s been lots of fun—long hours of code reading, analysis, testing, and debugging. Not that those were the most exciting parts, but pushing through and gaining a deeper understanding of the system definitely was.
LH hooks into the compiler pipeline to turn special comment annotations (refining types using logical predicates) into constraints for an external SMT solver to check. My project focuses on a very narrow feature, but along the way I’ve run into all sorts of cool programming concepts—like generic traversals of data structures and strongly connected components in directed graphs—while working through the parsing, name resolution, and definition unfolding implementations.
I’m deeply grateful to Facundo Domínguez for his generous and thoughtful mentoring, which has made this a rich learning experience and given me valuable engineering insights. I expect new challenges ahead, but I’ll do my best to sneak in some optimizations and give legacy code a proper cleanup.

frdbr 🎥🌳Two interesting projects I'm keeping an eye on:
✳️ Karton - A Virtual Machine manager being worked on for #gsoc by @kenoi
✳️ Kretro - A new #libretro frontend by @seshpenguin

OpenPrinting News - Google Summer of Code 2025 - Contributors selected and projects started
Our 11 GSoC contributors for OpenPrinting are doing great work! Now, one month into the official coding period, I have posted an overview: All projects with the contributor's abstracts, work reports from the contributors, links to their GIT repositories, and some background info:
Pavel PisaSummer 2025 #cvut defended theses by OTREES / “my” students:
- Matyáš Bobek, FlexCAN Controller Emulation for QEMU, #qemu #canbus (git), I hope for mainlining soon, my thanks to
@marckleinebudde for review - Albert Bezděk, Stereo Camera FPGA Interface and Processing for Zynq Based Systems, with initial rectification and disparity in #XilinX #Zynq #FPGA (git), thank to Martin Meloun for review
- Michal Matiáš, NuttX RTOS Driver for Single Unshielded Twisted Pair Communication, working with ncv7410 and ESP32-C6 for now (nuttx, apps git), continues by #GSoC expected to lead to broader OpenAlliance SPI Ethernet MAC-PHY T1S for mainline #NuttX support after summer, thanks to @cynerd for review
See the last OTREES theses list for link to repositories and more
Another related theses from #cvut Faculty of Information Technologies mentored by Michal Štepanovský to mention:
- Jan Medek, Implementation of RISC-V soft-core processor on FPGA board with real-time operating system support, port (git) of #NuttX to the own setup of Ibex #riscv to Digilent Basys 3 and Digilent Nexys Video, includes even #NuttX, #RTEMS, #Zephyr, #FreeRTOS and RT-Thread choice analysis, some minor clarifications in my review, out of the text documentation, the student ported NuttX even to the CPU system prepared in frame of the next thesis
- Ondřej Golasowski, RISC-V open-source microarchitecture analysis and optimization, the VESP-BETA single-cycle RV32IMZicsr #riscv design for basic #comparch education with #FPGA labs
Stay tuned next summer as well, there is student interested in thesis to add MMU to #QtRvSim
